Abstract:

The question of how to represent prosodic structure is of current theoretical interest in three dimensional phonology. Two current theories/models of representation are the onset/rime model (Kaye and Lowenstamm 1982, Kaye Lowenstamm and Vergnaud 1987 and Levin 1985) and the mora model (Hyman 1985, McCarthy and Prince 1986 and Hayes 1988). This thesis consists of a detailed investigation of the descriptive adequacy of these two theories for the Japanese language. Japanese can be considered an archetypal mora language since in the indigenous linguistic tradition it is analysed into moras. The v

Abstract:

A central topic of recent research in phonological theory has been the syllable and the question of its internal structure. A common view that emerges from this work is that the syllable consists of two major constituents, the onset and the rhyme. A careful scrutiny of the major arguments for the rhyme, however, reveals that the class of phonological generalizations (rule-types) that are only supposed to make reference to elements within the rhyme make reference to other elements as well. To cite one example, some stress rules are required to make reference to onsets. Moreover, there is other

Abstract:

This thesis aims to investigate the role of the syllable, a non-meaning bearing unit, in learning high level meaning bearing units---the lexical items of language. A computational model has been developed to learn the meaning bearing units of the language, assuming knowledge of syllables. The input to the system comprises of words marked at syllable boundaries together with their meanings. Using a statistical learning algorithm, the model discovers the meaning bearing elements with their respective syntactic categories.

Abstract:

This thesis addresses the problem of accounting for morphological alternation within Natural Language Processing. It proposes an approach to morphology which is based on phonological concepts, in particular the syllable, in contrast to morpheme-based approaches which have standardly been used by both NLP and linguistics. It is argued that morpheme-based approaches, within both linguistics and NLP, grew out of the apparently purely affixational morphology of European languages, and especially English, but are less appropriate for non-affixational languages such as Arabic. Indeed, it is claimed

Abstract:

Stuttering is a developmental speech disorder affecting the fluency of speech. The cause of stuttering is not fully understood. Evidence has suggested an underlying speech neural processing deficit that is influenced by linguistic and environmental factors. A number of studies have identified the factors in spoken language that are associated with stuttering. However, most studies are conducted in languages that have a stress-timed language rhythm or non-tone languages. There is a dearth of research in syllable-timed languages and tone languages.

Abstract:

The prevailing approach to speech recognition is Hidden Markov Modelling, which yields good performance. However, it ignores phonetics, which has the potential for going beyond the acoustic variance to provide a more abstract underlying representation. The novel approach pursued in this thesis is motivated by phonetic and phonological considerations. It is based on the notion of pseudo-articulatory representations, which are abstract and idealized accounts of articulatory activity. The original work presented here demonstrates the recovery of syllable structure information from pseudo-articula

Abstract:

This dissertation is a model of a unified study of three linguistic aspects: description, theory and application. Tohono O'odham syllable weight is investigated within these linguistic aspects. I propose that O'odham diphthongs are categorized into two groups based on their weight: light (monomoraic) diphthongs and heavy (bimoraic) diphthongs. This is opposed to generally understood diphthong classifications (i.e., falling vs. rising). My conclusion is supported by empirical facts, including morpho-phonological and phonetic phenomena.

Remembering the sound of a new word when it is first encountered is an important skill which plays a critical role in the development of vocabulary (Gathercole & Baddeley, 1989), yet the mechanisms underlying this form of verbal short-term memory are not well understood. Errors in the repetition and serial recall of nonwords indicate that structural properties of the syllable are represented in short-term memory, but existing accounts of serial learning and recall do not incorporate any representation of linguistic structure.

The acquisition of second language phonology has been commanding researchers' attention in recent years.

The thesis explores both the development of phonological competence by post-puberty second language learners and the end state of pre-puberty bilingual acquisition. Reviewing the literature on the theoretical aspects of mora, syllables and syllable structure, we see that the mora is distinctive and plays vital role in Japanese phonology.

This dissertation is an in-depth study of weak syllable omissions from polysyllabic words, a phenomenon seen in three quite different English-speaking populations: young children with normally developing language, older children with specific language impairment (SLI), and adults with types of non-fluent aphasia. The omissions result in forms such as nana for banana, or raffe for giraffe. I first review the main theoretical accounts of weak syllable omissions, which implicate input (perception), production, or grammar (phonology).
