Æ/-Raising in Wisconsin English
The raising of /æ/ before voiced velars (such that bag is perceived as beg) has been noted and documented sporadically in the American Midwest over the past 60 years. Commentaries range from the impressionistic to the acoustically based. Here we present not only acoustic but also articulatory data from ultrasound gathered from speakers of the dialect in question. Our results from a speech production experiment show that /æ/ is in fact raised befo…

Black Votes Count
Most Americans see the passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 as the culmination of the civil rights movement. When the law was enacted, black voter registration in Mississippi soared. Few black candidates won office, however. This book describes black Mississippians' battle for meaningful voting rights, bringing the story up to 1986, when Mike Espy was elected as Mississippi's first black member of Congress in this century. To nullify the impa…
Untriggered Reflexive Pronouns in English
The focus of our discussion, in contrast, is a phenomenon that has received less attention, namely the UNTRIGGERED reflexive (UR): that is, a reflexive that speakers find generally acceptable even though it is not coreferential with another NP. In the following analysis, we attempt to explain four distributional properties of UR's. First, UR's that are marginal at best as single NP's are often acceptable in coordinate NP's. This phenomenon is ill…

Case Assignment and the Ordering of Constituents in Coordinate Constructions
HIS PAPER DEALS WITH THE FOLLOWING two phenomena found in coordinate constructions in English. First, ordinary rules of case assignment seem to be suspended when noun phrases (NP's) occur in coordinate structures. In particular, objective case pronouns never appear as the subject of a tensed clause unless they appear in a coordinate construction. For example, even in nonstandard dialects of English, we hear Me and him got fired but never *Me got …

The contribution of rate of F1 decline to the perception of [± voice]
Longitudinal patterns of cigarette smoking and smokeless tobacco use in youth
Tobacco use was studied during 1977-76 (n = 2880) and 1981-82 (n = 2158) in a total biracial community of children, aged 8-17 years, in Bogalusa, Louisiana. White males were the early adopters of tobacco products in both surveys. Cigarette smoking decreased in all race and gender groups while smokeless tobacco use increased in White males. Studies which find a decline in male adolescent smoking should investigate a possible concurrent increase in…
Analogizing from Linguistics to Folklore
During the past 25 years a number of fields in the humanities and social sciences have looked to generative linguistics as a model for analyzing the phenomena within their respective domains. Among these fields are those as diverse as anthropology, literary criticism, speech, and rhetoric and compositon. The field of folklore, in particular folk narrative, is no exception to this trend. In fact, attempts to justify the analogizing from linguistic…
Anomalous Prepositions in Relative Clauses
ALTHOUGH THE COMPETENCE-PERFORMANCE DISTINCTION posited by X Chomsky (1965) is by now a familiar concept, it is by no means a uniformly agreed-upon one. Newmeyer (1983), in reviewing the controversy that has surrounded this distinction, discusses several reasons that some theorists have been dissatisfied with the dichotomy. He observes, one thing, that for any given linguistic phenomenon, no hard-andfast criterion exists decide which aspects shou…
Echo Questions in English
syntactic properties of EQ's, in particular characteristics of such stimulus-response pairs, have generally been treated only superficially (if at all) in literature. Langacker, for example, explicitly excludes EQ's from his discussion of status of presentence marker Q (1974, 1213). Culicover, on other hand, treats EQ's as unassimilable to standard rules of formation in English. He states, The relative unrestrictedness of makes it unprofitable to…

Language Change and the Passive Voice
Indo-European verbs inflected in the middle voice have taken on passive meaning; explanations for this have been proposed, but each presents difficulties. Here an alternative paradigm of language change is set forth to explain the process. This paradigm is, among other things, dependent on the fact that more than one structural description may be assigned to a given sentence. If the hearer assigns a different structural description to a sentence …
