  • A Feature Alignment Approach to Plural Realization in Eastern Andalusian Spanish

    Open AccessDavi, Stuart Davis et al.ARTICLELanguages2024References: 19

    Using an optimality theoretic analysis, this study offers a conception of the problem of plural realization in Eastern Andalusian Spanish (EAS) where plural suffix /s/ was deleted diachronically that differs from other accounts that assign the EAS plural an underlying suffixal /s/ synchronically. Using alignment constraints, we argue that plural /s/ does not appear in the underlying form synchronically in EAS, but that instead the plural morpheme…

  • What is Netflix imperialism? Interrogating the monopoly aspirations of the ‘World's largest television network’

    Davi, Stuart DavisARTICLEInformation Communication & Society2023

    Building on the controversial charge of Netflix imperialism made in 2019 by Canadian Broadcasting Corporation president Catherine Tait, this piece attempts to develop a theoretical and technical framework for understanding whether the American content provider/streaming service is engaging in ‘media imperialism’ by rapidly and expansively importing its service into other nations--often to the chagrin of governments and other media companies.

  • Moraic preservation and equivalence in Gújjolaay Eegimaa perfective reduplication

    Abbie Hantgan, Serge Sagna et al.ARTICLEJournal of African Languages and…2020

    The role of syllable weight in Gújjolaay Eegimaa, an Atlantic language spoken in south-western Senegal, is evidenced by reduplicative patterns in the perfective stem, where we witness a difference in the surface representation of verb roots with underlying voiced obstruents from those with underlying voiceless obstruents. We argue that voiced plosives are weight bearing and therefore considered as moraic when in coda position in this language. We…

  • The Typology of Pharyngealization in Arabic Dialects Focusing on a Rural Jordanian Variety

    Open AccessBasem Ibrahim Malawi Al-Raba'A, Basem Ibrahim Malawi Al-Raba’a et al.ARTICLEJournal of Universal Language2020

    Pharyngealization, also known as emphasis, is phonologically a very productive process in most Arabic varieties. This study first overviews the typology of pharyngealization in Arabic dialects and then focuses on the analysis of pharyngealization (i.e., emphasis spread) in a subvariety of rural Jordanian Arabic, which differs considerably from other dialects. The preferred structure in this subvariety of Jordanian Arabic is the emphatic syllable …

  • Formal versus Functional Explanation for a Universal Theory of Syllable Structure

    Open AccessDavi, Stuart Davis et al.ARTICLEJournal of Universal Language2012

    This paper first contrasts formal versus functional explanations for language processes. It suggests that the different types of explanation can be brought together to offer deeper understanding of language processes. It illustrates this by giving a detailed account of vowel epenthesis in the Native American language Winnebago that references a universal theory of syllable structure

  • Bondu-so vowel harmony

    Open AccessAbie Hantgan, Davi et al.ARTICLEStudies in African Linguistics2012Cited by: 1

    This paper provides a descriptive analysis of the [ATR] vowel harmony system of Bondu-so (Dogon, Mali), a previously undocumented language. Data come from fieldwork and have not yet been published. While Bondu-so has seven surface vowels, namely, two [+ATR, +high] vowels ([i], [u]), a [–ATR +low] vowel [a] and a [±ATR] contrast in the mid vowels with front [e]/[ɛ] and back [o]/[ɔ], there is evidence for a more abstract vowel system phonologically…

    The subject of this biography is not widely known as a leader of the campaign for women's rights. Many may not be familiar with her connection with women's suffrage or feminism but instead remember her as a personality of the Gilded Age, an immensely wealthy socialite who owned and helped design some of the most fashionable mansions in New York and Newport, Rhode Island, and who resided in a dazzling world of luxury and privilege. Indeed, Alva Va…

  • A construction approach to innovative verbs in Japanese

    Open AccessNatsuko Tsujimura, Davi et al.ARTICLECognitive Linguistics2011Cited by: 1References: 2

    Innovative verbs in Japanese are formed from nouns of various sources including loanwords, Sino-Japanese nouns, mimetics, and proper names. Regardless of their different origin, these innovative denominal verbs exhibit a collection of intriguing properties, ranging from phonological, morphological, to semantic and pragmatic. These properties are not strictly predictable from the component parts including the nature of the parent noun and verbal m…

  • Split Margin Approach to Syllable Structure

    Open AccessKaren Baertsch, Davi et al.ARTICLEZAS Papers in Linguistics2003

    In this paper we focus on the similarities tying together the second segment of an onset cluster and a singleton coda segment. We offer a proposal based on Baertsch (2002) accounting for this similarity and show how it captures a number of observations which have defied previous explanation. In accounting for the similarity of patterning between the second member of an onset and a coda consonant, we propose to augment Prince & Smolensky's (P&S, 1…

  • Syllable Structure for an Artificial Language Based on Universal Principles

    Open AccessDavi, Stuart DavisARTICLEJournal of Universal Language2002

    This paper discusses the types of syllables that should be found in a spoken artificial language based on the common types of syllables found in natural languages. The paper also examines the various units within the syllable, such as onset,nucleus ,and coda,suggesting how the preferred structure of these units maybe incorporated into an artificial language. One proposal that will emerge is that an artificial language needs to allow for at least …
