  • Investigating the ‘what’, ‘where’ and ‘why’ of global phonological typology

    Open AccessIan MaddiesonARTICLELinguistic Typology2023

    What? Where? and Why? are the principal questions to ask in relation to linguistic typological patterns, in phonology as elsewhere. However, assembling sufficient and reliable information on a large diverse sample of languages presents challenges. Some of these issues are discussed in this paper, based on the practices seen in various database projects, including WALS and LAPSyD and in the wider literature. The challenge of recognizing areal conv…

  • A Tonal Identification of Yoruba Dialects

    Open AccessKolawole Adeniyi, E Oluwafemi et al.ARTICLEDialectologia2021

    This article studies variations in the realisation of contour tones in Oyo, Ibadan, Ife, Igbomina, Ijebu, Ijesa, Ilorin, and Onko dialects of Yoruba and reports that the dialects exploit different dimensions of contour tone realisation to distinguish themselves. Ife, Igbomina and Ijesa dialects reduce the frequency of contour tones via high tone lowering and contour levelling, whereas Ijebu dialect multiplies contours in several ways. For instanc…

  • The Phonetic Structures of Oaxaca Chontal

    Ian Maddieson, Heriberto Avelino et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of American…2009Citada por: 5Referencias: 12

    This paper presents the first description in some detail of aspects of the phonetic structures of the highly endangered Lowland variety of Oaxaca Chontal, including measurements of the characteristics of the vowels and a survey of the principal features of the consonant system. Particular attention is paid to the series of glottalized obstruents and sonorants, which vary a great deal in their manner of articulation and the nature and timing of th…

  • Peter Ladefoged

    Open AccessIan MaddiesonARTICLELanguage2007

    Peter Ladefoged Ian Maddieson Peter Ladefoged, the most influential phonetician of his generation, died in London on January 24, 2006, at the age of eighty. He was returning to Los Angeles from fieldwork in India when he suffered a stroke at Heathrow airport. He was taken to Hillingdon Hospital where he suffered a subsequent massive, and fatal, stroke. Peter was born on September 17, 1925, at Sutton, Surrey (now part of Greater London), in Englan…

  • Phonetics in the Field

    Open AccessIan MaddiesonARTICLEProceedings of the Annual Meeting…2002

    it seems generally the case that little detail on specifically phonetic matters is provided in a typical grammar, nor is there much use of phonetic techniques to provide insights on other matters, such as adding precision to observations of phonological alternations or testing whether supposed syntactic ambiguities are actually disambiguated at the phonetic level. While syntactic patterns are documented with example sentences, often from natural …

  • Shipibo

    Open AccessPilar M Valenzuela, Patricia Valenzuela et al.ARTICLEJournal of the International…2001Citada por: 4

    The Shipibo language is spoken by about 30,000 people in the Ucayali River valley, in the Upper Amazon watershed in the central eastern part of Peru. The language is sometimes also called Shipibo-Conibo after the two main previously distinct ethnic groups which form its speakers. It is a member of the Panoan family and thus is related to such languages as Capanahua, Amahuaca and Chacobo. Panoan languages are principally found in Peru but the fami…

  • The Phonetics of Ndumbea

    Matthew Gordon, Ian MaddiesonARTICLEOceanic Linguistics1999

    “Overseas Territory ” in the South Pacific. The name Ndumbea more properly belongs to a people who have given their name to the present-day capital of the territory, Nouméa, as well as to Dumbéa, a smaller town to the north of Nouméa. Rivierre (1973) uses the phrase [n¢a⁄)a)

  • The phonetic structures of Hadza

    Open AccessBonny Sands, Ian Maddieson et al.ARTICLEStudies in African Linguistics1996Citada por: 4

    Hadza is one of three East African languages with clicks. Previous field repons on this language have disagreed on several of its phonetic chanacteristics, including the number and nature of the clicks. This paper-based on acoustic and aniculatory analyses of data collected in recent fieldwork-presents a more detailed picture than any previous work. Special attention is given to the articulation of the click types and the acoustic features of the…

  • Syllable structure and phonetic models

    Open AccessIan Maddieson, Kristin PrecodaARTICLEPhonology1992

    Through construction of predictive models, phoneticians are making increasingly sophisticated attempts to account for certain aspects of the phonological structure of languages from very general principles(Stevens 1989; Lindblom 1984; Ohala 1990, 1992)

  • Commentary on ‘Reading waveforms’

    Open AccessIan MaddiesonARTICLEJournal of the International…1991

    The previous issue of the Journal contained a discussion by Peter Ladefoged about interpreting the information in a speech waveform ( JIPA , 21, 32–34), noting that examination of waveforms displays is becoming commonplace with the easy availability of personal computer tools for digitizing and editing. As Ladefoged noted: “Several aspects of sounds are clearly distinguishable from the waveforms of a phrase. Stop closures are very evident, as are…

  • The transcription of tone in the IPA

    Open AccessIan MaddiesonARTICLEJournal of the International…1990Citada por: 1Referencias: 1

    Prior to the 1989 convention in Kiel the principal symbols for tones recommended by the IPA were a set of "horizontal and oblique accents" which were intended 'by their shapes and positions" to "give some indication of their musical values" (quotations are from Principles of the IPA 1949, p. 18.). Thus, level tones were to be indicated by horizontal bars, rising tones by marks that slope up from left to right, falling tones by marks that slope do…

  • Prenasalized stops and speech timing

    Open AccessIan MaddiesonARTICLEJournal of the International…1989Citada por: 7Referencias: 2

    Prenasalized stops, that is, homorganic nasal+stop elements that behave as single phonological segments, raise a number of interesting questions concerning the relationship between phonological units and timing in speech. Do complex phonetic elements of this kind occupy the same duration as simpler elements, such as plain stops or nasals? Do prenasalized stops have the same timing pattern as a phonological sequence of nasal plus stop? How do pren…
