Bloomfield as Dialectologist
Although Bloomfield published only one article and one book-review devoted specifically to dialectology, the study of dialects and their function in human communication was fundamental in his work. In his 1933 Language, four chapters deal in part or in whole with dialectology: 3, "Speech-communities", 19, "Dialect Geography", 22, "Fluctuation in Frequency of Forms"; and 27, "Dialect Borrowing". In these, he drew extensively on the work of his pre…

Structural Dialectology
Where traditional dialectology usually asks only such questions as, 'What does the vowel of this word sound like at each point under investigation?', structural dialectology goes on to ask, 'How does this vowel sound fit into the phonemic system of each point?' Examples taken from the Sprachatlas der deutschen Schweiz illustrate how this second, structural question can add new insights not only to dialectology but also to general phonological the…

The Dialect Geography of hast, hat in Swiss German
In The pronunciation of English in the Atlantic States (Ann Arbor, 1961), Hans Kurath and his collaborator, Raven I. McDavid Jr., have given us the first detailed study in structural dialectology that has ever been made of a large geographical area. In the present article, offered in Kurath's honor, I shall try to make a similar contribution in miniature: a structural analysis of the vowel of a single pair of words, involving part of the short-vo…

Juncture in Modern Standard German
The following paragraphs attempt to give a partial phonemic analysis of modern standard German. §1 establishes the segmental phonemes that are needed to describe utterances of only one syllable. §2 discusses the role that stress plays in German, describes the effect of stress on the segmental phonemes already established, and adds one new segmental phoneme (ž) which does not occur in monosyllabic utterances. §3 describes the inadequacies of this …

The Stops and Spirants of Early Germanic
The student who turns to our many excellent handbooks for information on the stops and spirants of Proto-Germanic finds that they agree completely in some respects, but disagree just as completely in others. All of them assume for Proto-Germanic a set of voiceless spirants and a set of voiceless stops: the spirants /f þ h/ as in English fish, thin, horn , derived from PIE /p t k/ as in Latin piscis, tenuis, cornu; and the stops /p t k/ as in Engl…
The Phonemes of Gothic
It seems fitting, in a number of LANGUAGE dedicated to Leonard Bloomfield, to apply the technique of phonemic analysis to one of the Germanic languages with which he has so long been associated. The present study attempts to analyze the segmental phonemes of Gothic, as far as the written evidence allows us to; and to sketch the changes between Proto-Germanic and Gothic
Swiss German Dialect and Romance Patois
The oldest HG documents that are preserved to us show a variety of unstressed final vowels: - i, -e, -a, -o, -u , and the diphthong - iu , e.g. nom. sg. hirti ‘Hirt’, dat. sg. tage ‘(dem) Tage’, nom. sg. zunga ‘Zunge’, haso ‘Hase’, fridu ‘Frieden’, guotiu ‘gute’ (fem.). At a later period most documents show instead of these full vowels only a single reduced vowel that is written - e: hirte, tage, zunge, hase, vride, guote (MG only; the UG form is…
Scribe γ of the Old High German Tatian Translation
“There is a wooded place in the midst of a vast wilderness and at the center of the peoples to whom we are preaching. There we have placed a group of monks living under the rule of St. Benedict, who are building a monastery.” So writes St. Boniface, in the year 751, to Pope Zacharias. Several years earlier Boniface had sent his favorite pupil, Sturm, into the forest of Bochonia to find a suitable location for a monastery. The site they finally ag…
