Cantonese Speakers and the Acquisition of French Consonants
This article reports the findings of research on the acquisition of French consonants by native speakers of Cantonese. An error analysis based on a careful phonetic transcription of production data resulted in a scale of difficulty of consonants in both initial and final positions. Several of the major patterns of difficulty are explained by the Markedness Differential Hypothesis. On the basis of errors found, and which are not perfectly predicte…

The Phonology of Central/Prairie Canadian English
ONE OF THE DIFFICULTIES facing any scholar studying Canadian English is the lack of any complete and consistent account of the phonology of the dialect that Avis (1973a, pp. 62-64) located in and west of Ontario.1 This dialect, herein referred to as Central/Prairie Canadian English (C/PCE), is important partly because it lies behind the Gage series of dictionaries of Canadian English, which includes (for example) the Canadian Senior Dictionary (A…

A Revised Phonetic Alphabet proposed by the Maritimes Dialect Survey
The origins of this Revised Phonetic Alphabet lie in the attempts of the Maritimes Dialect Survey to find an alphabet which would allow a computor to handle phonetic data readily and conveniently. This necessitated planning an alphabet which could be adapted to an 88-place ‘golf ball’ which could then be used with, for example, an IBM Selectric typewriter; that is to say, the proposed alphabet had to consist of not more than 88 ‘elements’. In fac…
The Use of Pictures in Elicitation
T HIS PAPER originates with fieldwork on the dialect of New Brunswick, Canada, during 1969-70.1 The worksheet used was that of the Maritimes Dialect Survey, itself development from the short worksheet used the fieldwork for the Linguistic Atlas of New England.2 The object of the paper is twofold: I intend to report on the origin and construction of pictorial aid to elicitation and thereafter to report also on the attempt to measure its value as t…
