An acoustic study of ATR in Tima vowels
Tima has a typologically unusual 12-vowel advanced tongue root (ATR) harmony system, contrasting six [+ATR] vowels /i e ɨ ʌ o u/ with six [−ATR] vowels /ɪ ɛ ɘ a ɔ ʊ/. This harmony system provides a test case for generalisations about ATR systems: for example, that [−ATR] is less compatible with higher vowels; that [+ATR] is less compatible with lower vowels and that central vowels are incompatible with [ATR] systems. After showing that all vowels…
Effects of syllable position and place of articulation on secondary dorsal contrasts
Irish ultrasound study supports articulatory bases for loss of palatalization contrasts. • Palatalization contrast in stops reduced in word-/syllable-final position. • Tongue body distinction in palatalization contrast is smallest for dorsal stops. • Palatalization contrast is more reduced in coda for labial than coronal stops. • Velarized sounds more subject to coarticulation than palatalized, esp. in coda and after [iː]. Secondary articulations…
An ultrasound study of Connemara Irish palatalization and velarization
We present the first ultrasound analysis of the secondary palatalization contrast in Irish, analyzing data from five speakers from the Connemara dialect group. Word-initial /pj(bj)pɣ(bɣ)tjtɣkjkɣfjfɣsjsɣxjxɣ/ are analyzed in the context of /iːuː/. We find, first, that tongue body position robustly distinguishes palatalized from velarized consonants, across place of articulation, manner, and vowel place contexts, with palatalized consonants having …
Domain generalisation in artificial language learning
Many languages have restrictions on word-final segments, such as a requirement that any word-final obstruent be voiceless. There is a phonetic basis for such restrictions at the ends of utterances, but not the ends of words. Historical linguists have long noted this mismatch, and have attributed it to an analogical generalisation of such restrictions from utterance-final to word-final position. To test whether language learners actually generalis…
An acoustic and perceptual study of Connemara Irish palatalization
Palatalization contrasts are subject to certain asymmetries across languages (Takatori 1997, Kochetov 2002). For example, they are preferred at the beginning of words or syllables rather than at the end, and they are preferred in coronals rather than labials. Kochetov (2002, 2004) argues that these asymmetries are perceptually motivated, and he provides supporting evidence from Russian. We report on results of an acoustic and perceptual study of …

A perceptual study of Polish fricatives, and its implications for historical sound change
Systemic contrast and Catalan rhotics
this paper I take a new look at Catalan rhotics, arguing that we can achieve a better account of them if we explicitly acknowledge the role of contrast in their behavior. Specifically, the explanation calls on constraints requiring that contrast be maintained, on the one hand, and on constraints requiring that contrasts be perceptually distinct, on the other. The account is cast within Dispersion Theory (Flemming 1995, to appear), which is design…
Russian /Cju/ and “perceptual” vs. “phonological” theories of borrowing
Glides, vowels, and features
Evolution of sibilants in Polish and Russian
In this paper we provide an account of the historical development of Polish and Russian sibilants. The arguments provided here are of theoretical interest because they show that (i) certain allophonic rules are driven by the need to keep contrasts perceptually distinct, (ii) (unconditioned) sound changes result from needs of perceptual distinctiveness, and (iii) perceptual distinctiveness can be extended to a class of consonants, i.e. the sibilan…
Contrast and Post-Velar Fronting in Russian
Feature Classes in Phonology
This article argues for a particular understanding of feature class behavior—the recurrent patterning together of certain phonological features, such as place of articulation and laryngeal features. The proposals build on the well-known work of feature geometry in assuming the importance of feature classes in phonology, but differ in that features of a class are targeted directly and individually by constraints (or rules), even when a feature cla…
