Predicting relative intelligibility from inter-talker distances in a perceptual similarity space for speech
The Cambridge Handbook of Bilingual Phonetics and Phonology
Bilingualism and the study of speech sounds are two of the largest areas of inquiry in linguistics. This Handbook sits at the intersection of these fields, providing a comprehensive overview of the most recent, cutting-edge work on the sound systems of adult and child bilinguals. Bringing together contributions from an international team of world-leading experts, it covers all aspects of the speech perception, production and processing of bilingu…
Consequences of mixing and switching languages for retrieval and articulation
A large literature has shown that language context –mixing and switching between languages – impacts lexical access processes during bilingual speech production. Recent work has suggested parallel contextual effects of language context on the phonetic realization of speech sounds, consistent with interactions between lexical access and phonetic processes. In this pre-registered study, we directly examine the link between lexical access and phonet…

Interaction of lexical strata in hybrid compound words through gradient phonotactics
We analyse hybrid compound words in Japanese, where a hybrid compound is one formed from stems that belong to more than one lexical stratum. In native-foreign compounds, where one stem belongs to one of the three native strata: Yamato, Sino Japanese and mimetic, as identified by Itô and Mester (1995), and the other to the foreign stratum, we observe that violations of phonological wellformedness constraints in the foreign stem are significantly l…
Variable pronunciations reveal dynamic intra-speaker variation in speech planning
Cascading activation in phonological planning and articulation: Evidence from spontaneous speech errors
Speaking involves both retrieving the sounds of a word (phonological planning) and realizing these selected sounds in fluid speech (articulation). Recent phonetic research on speech errors has argued that multiple candidate sounds in phonological planning can influence articulation because the pronunciation of mis-selected error sounds is slightly skewed towards unselected target sounds. Yet research to date has only examined these phonetic disto…
Learning a gradient grammar of French liaison
In certain French words, an orthgraphically-final consonant is unpronounced except, in certain environments, when it precedes a vowel. This phenomenon, liaison, shows significant interactions with several other patterns in French (including h-aspiré, schwa deletion, and the presence of other morphemes in the liaison context). We present a learning algorithm that acquires a grammar that accounts for these patterns and their interactions. The learn…
Incremental parsing in a continuous dynamical system: Sentence processing in Gradient Symbolic Computation
Any incremental parser must solve two computational problems: (1) maintaining all interpretations consistent with the words that have been processed so far and (2) excluding all globally-incoherent interpretations. While these problems are well understood, it is not clear how the dynamic, continuous mechanisms that underlie human language processing solve them. We introduce a Gradient Symbolic Computation (GSC) parser, a continuous-state, continu…
The Influence of Word Retrieval and Planning on Phonetic Variation: Implications for Exemplar Models
Over the past several decades, an increasing number of empirical studies have documented the interaction of information across the traditional linguistic modules of phonetics, phonology, and lexicon. For example, the frequency with which a word occurs influences its phonetic properties of its sounds; high frequency words tend to be reduced relative to low frequency words. Lexicalist Exemplar Models have been successful in accounting for this body…
Bilinguals Show Weaker Lexical Access During Spoken Sentence Comprehension

Linking Speech Errors and Generative Phonological Theory
Speech errors are a critical source of data on the tacit knowledge that underlies our creative use of language. Studies of errors in spontaneous speech, in experimental paradigms such as tongue twisters, and those produced by aphasic individuals reveal the influence of linguistic principles on the production of speech. Linguistic representations from distinctive features and gestures to prosodic structure shape speech error distributions. Speech …
Linking speech errors and phonological grammars: Insights from Harmonic Grammar networks
Phonological grammars characterise distinctions between relatively well-formed (unmarked) and relatively ill-formed (marked) phonological structures. We review evidence that markedness influences speech-error probabilities. Specifically, although errors result in unmarked as well as marked structures, there is a markedness asymmetry: errors are more likely to produce unmarked outcomes. We show that stochastic disruption to the computational mecha…
