Abstract:

Abstract The Manila variety of Philippine Hybrid Hokkien (PHH-M) or Lánnang-uè is a contact language used by the metropolitan Manila Chinese Filipinos; it is primarily comprised of Hokkien, Tagalog/Filipino, and English elements. Approaching PHH-M as a mixed language, we investigate linguistically and socially conditioned variation in the monophthongs of PHH-M, focusing on the extent to which the vowel systems of the three source languages have converged. This analysis draws on data gathered from 34 native speakers; Pillai scores are calculated to assess the degree of merger. Contrary to certain predictions of prior work on mixed languages, PHH-M is found to have a unified, eight-vowel inventory distinct from any of its sources. Older women use more stable vowels across source languages, suggesting that they have led in the development of PHH-M as a mixed code; however, signs of change among younger women suggest either the endangerment of the code or its evolution in response to the community’s shifting identity. We contextualize our conclusions in relation to the sociohistory and language ecology of metropolitan Manila’s Chinese Filipino community.

Abstract:

Analyzing the complexity of the articulatory process of the vowels in Albanian and English language is of crucial importance in distinguishing their unique phonetic and phonological properties. The standard Albanian vocalic system includes seven vowels, unlike the standard British English vowel system which consists of five vowels. Drawing points of similarity and differentiation between the vowel systems of the two languages requires detailed analysis regarding the degree of opening and the position of the tongue in the vowel tract. Therefore the purpose of this paper is to highlight differences and similarities of the vowel system (monophthongs) between standard Albanian language and British English. The seven Albanian vowels considerably differ from their five English counterparts, not only by their degree of opening but even by their placement concerning the horizontal movement of the tongue, which can be observed by examining the two vowel charts of both languages. The Albanian vowel system is displayed through a triangle, meanwhile the English vowel system is a schematic arrangement of vowels into a quadrilateral.Thus analyzing their properties by using a comparative approach regarding vowels articulation in both languages would help in generating a clear picture of their common and distinguishing characteristics.

Abstract:

Abstract The reconstruction of the Proto-Chadic (PC) vowel system has hitherto been considered impossible. Proposals covered one (*a), two (*a, *ə), three (*a, *i, *u) and four (*a, *ə, *i, *u) vowels. The one-vowel solution gains support by evidence from mainly the languages of the Central Chadic branch, together with the notion of palatalisation and labialisation prosodies, which create particular ‘colourings’ for vowels and consonants in phonetic surface realisations and have been discovered to operate in all branches of the family, but to very different extent. Based on new insights into the phonological history of Central Chadic (Wolff 2022, forthcoming), at variance with Gravina (2014), and referring back to a typology of Chadic vowel systems suggested by Schuh (2017), we can now tentatively delineate the development from a minimal vowel inventory */a/, *[ə] in PC to vowel systems of between one and 15 (short and long) phonemic vowels in modern Chadic languages. Diachronic vowel-system typology in Chadic allows a critical review of received wisdom concerning vowel systems elsewhere in Afroasiatic, potentially touching on issues pertaining to the internal sub-classification of the phylum. At least the vowel system of Tashelhiyt (Berber) corresponds in essential details to the PC minimal vowel system, a non-trivial observation that raises questions concerning genetic heritage, language contact, and/or areal innovation.

Abstract:

The vowel system of Margi, described by Hoffman [1963] as containing three high vowels and one low vowel, is reinterpreted as a two-vowel system with underlying contrast only of high versus low. A pervasive contrast of secondary articulations on consonants spreads features of rounding and backness to contiguous vowels, giving rise to the different high vowel qualities recognized by Hoffman. A morphological role for the secondary articulations can be identified. Given this new understanding of the vowel system, the claim that "labio-coronal" elements in Margi are single complex segments requires reevaluation. Arguments advanced by Sagey [1986] are shown to proceed from a wrong interpretation of a syncope process and an assumed underlying contrast between high vowels. Phonetic data and the absence of phonological arguments to the contrary suggest that the labiocoronal elements are consonant sequences. 1.

Abstract:

Jumjum, a Western Nilotic language, has an eight-vowel system divided into two sets by the feature [ATR] (Advanced Tongue Root), which is the basis of vowel harmony. A comparison with other Western Nilotic languages shows that (i) this vowel system goes back to a ten-vowel system in Proto-Western Nilotic (PWN), (ii) PWN high [−ATR] vowels have become high [+ATR] vowels in Jumjum, and (iii) conversely, PWN high [+ATR] vowels have become high [−ATR] vowels in Jumjum. The sequence of changes that resulted in this [ATR] reversal in Jumjum relative to PWN provides a historical explanation of synchronically odd, grammatically conditioned vowel-quality alternations in this language.

Abstract:

This paper provides a descriptive analysis of the [ATR] vowel harmony system of Bondu-so (Dogon, Mali), a previously undocumented language. Data come from fieldwork and have not yet been published. While Bondu-so has seven surface vowels, namely, two [+ATR, +high] vowels ([i], [u]), a [–ATR +low] vowel [a] and a [±ATR] contrast in the mid vowels with front [e]/[ɛ] and back [o]/[ɔ], there is evidence for a more abstract vowel system phonologically consisting of ten vowels with [±ATR] contrasts with all vowel heights. Further, the language shows a three-way contrast with respect to the feature [ATR] on suffixal vowels: some suffixal vowels act as [+ATR] dominant, spreading their [+ATR] feature onto the root; other suffixes act as [–ATR] dominant, spreading [–ATR] onto the root, and still other suffixes have vowels unspecified for [ATR] receiving their [±ATR] feature by rightward spreading of the [±ATR] value of the root vowel. We offer an autosegmental analysis and then discuss the theoretical implications of such an analysis. These implications include the ternary use of [ATR], the issue of phonological versus morphological harmony, the relationship between vowel inventories and [ATR] harmony systems, and the question of abstractness in phonology.

Full text

Abstract:

Previous studies have shown that the system of contrasts in a given language plays a significant role in determining certain contextual modifications stemming from coarticulation or the acoustic realization of stress. They argue that a limit on coarticulation occurs in cases where a high degree of coarticulation and its corresponding acoustic consequences would decrease the saliency of the relevant contrast. The current study investigates the role of contrastive vowel length in limiting the amount of contextual modification of vowel duration. More precisely, the interaction between vowel length contrast and the stop voicing effect is analyzed. The stop voicing effect results in vowel duration differences depending on whether the following obstruent is voiced or voiceless. The hypothesis is that the presence of vowel length contrast will inhibit the voicing effect, given that contextual variability of duration might blur a contrast based on length. This prediction is tested on Lithuanian, which has an asymmetrical vowel length system: only high and low vowels are contrastive for this dimension; mid vowels are always long. The experimental results show that the voicing effect is stronger for mid vowels, supporting the hypothesis that the presence of a length contrast attenuates the contextual effects on vowel duration.

Abstract:

This paper describes and analyses the vowel-harmony system of the Kordofanian language Moro. Moro has a cross-height dominant-recessive raising harmony system in which high vowels and a central mid vowel trigger harmony, while peripheral mid vowels and a central low vowel are harmony targets. Schwas can co-occur with any of the vowels, appearing inert to harmony. Yet when schwas occur alone in a morpheme, some trigger harmony and some do not. We suggest that an original ATR-harmony system shifted to a height system via merger and centralisation, producing two distinct central vowels, rather than a single schwa. One vowel patterns with the higher vowels in triggering harmony, and the other patterns with the lower vowels. We also propose that a particle-based representation offers the best characterisation of the groupings of target and trigger vowels in the language.

This paper describes the vowel harmony system and patterns of vowel merger in Agoi, an Upper Cross language. Data indicate that a once fully operative system of vowel harmony has now been generally restricted to the non-high vowels, with a few residual instances of II u/-determined harmony. The evolution of this change is described.

Abstract:

It has been suggested that Madurese has eight surface vowels [a, ɛ, ə, ɔ, ɤ, i, ɨ, u], but there have been disagreements with regard to the number of its vowel phonemes. The disagreements arise partly because some scholars base their analyses of Madurese vowels on phonetic grounds while others base them on certain phonological analyses. Besides, some researchers do not consider native versus non-native Madurese words in their analyses. The paper addresses these problems by incorporating both phonetic and phonological analyses in order to provide a better description of Madurese vowels. To achieve this, we investigated the acoustic realisations of the eight surface vowels by looking at the first and second formant frequencies (F1 and F2) of the high and non-high vowel pairs (i ~ ɛ, ɨ ~ ə, ɤ ~ a, u ~ ɔ). Fifteen speakers of Madurese were recorded reading Madurese words put in a carrier phrase. All segmentations were done employing Praat, and F1 and F2 values were extracted using a Praat script. The data were assessed with a linear mixed-effects model accounting for variation due to both random and fixed factors. The results showed that all high and non-high vowel pairs significantly differed in their F1 values. However, the results for F2 values showed variations; only the pair [ɨ ~ ə] showed a significant difference at vowel onset and at vowel midpoint the pairs [i ~ ɛ] and [ɨ ~ ə] were significantly different. Furthermore, we also looked at the vowels [ɤ] and [ɨ] as well as [ɤ] and [ə] to see if they differed in their F1 and F2 values. Our results confirmed that at both vowel onset and midpoint, they were significantly different. The results were discussed employing phonological analysis and vowel dispersion theory. The result of the analyses suggests that Madurese should be best described as a language with a four-vowel system and further offers a solution to the disagreements on the number of vowel phonemes in Madurese

Abstract:

This thesis presents a variationist account of phonological variation and change in the vowel system of Tyneside English. The distributions of the phonetic exponents of five vowel variables are assessed with respect to the social variables sex, age and social class. Using a corpus of conversational and word-list material, for which 32 speakers of Tyneside English were recorded, between 30 and 40 tokens per speaker of the variables (i), (u), (e), (o) and (3) were transcribed impressionistically and subclassified by following phonological context. The results of this analysis are significant on several counts. First, the speakers sampled appear to differentiate themselves within the speech community through the variable use of certain socially marked phonetic variants, which can be correlated with the sex, age and class variables. Secondly, the speakers style shift to a greater or lesser degree according to combinations of the three social factors, such that surface variability is reduced as a function of increased formality. Third, the overall pattern among the sample population seems to be one of increasing uniformity or convergence: it is speculated that social mobility among upper working- and lower-middle class groups may lead to accent levelling, whereby local speech forms are supplanted by supra-local or innovative intermediate ones. That is, the patterns observed here may be indicative of change in progress. Last, a comparison of the results for the (phonologically) paired variables (i u) and (e o) shows a strong tendency for Tyneside speakers to use these 'symmetrically', in that choice of variant in one variable predicts choice of variant in the other. It is suggested that the symmetry in the system is exploited by Tyneside speakers for the purposes of indicating social affiliation and identity, and is in this sense an extra sociolinguistic resource upon which speakers can draw. In addition, the variants of (3) are discussed with reference to the reported merger of this variable with (a); it is suggested that the apparent 'unmerging' of these two classes is unproblematic from a structural point of view, as the putative (3)—(o) merger appears never to have been completed.

Abstract:

The vowel systems of five selected Iranian Balochi dialects are investigated in this study, which is the first work to apply empirical acoustic analysis to a large body of recorded data on the vowel inventories of different Balochi dialects spoken in Iran. The selected dialects are spoken in the five regions of Sistan (SI), Saravan (SA), Khash (KH), Iranshahr (IR), and Chabahar (CH) located in the province Sistan and Baluchestan in southeast Iran. The aim of the present fieldwork-based survey is to study how similar the vowel systems of these dialects are to the Common Balochi vowel system (i, iː, u, uː, a, aː, eː, oː), which is represented as the vowel inventory for the Balochi dialects in general, as well as how similar these dialects are to one another. The investigation shows that length is contrastive in these dialects, although the durational dif-ferences between the long and short counterparts are quite small in some dialects. The study also reveals that there are some differences between the vowel systems of these dialects and the Com-mon Balochi sound inventory. The Common Balochi short /i/ vowel is modified to short /e/ in these dialects, and a strong tendency for the long /eː/ and /oː/ to become the diphthongs ie and ue, respec-tively, is observed in some of the investigated dialects, specifically in KH, which shows heavier diphthongization than the other dialects. It is also observed, especially in SI, SA, and CH, that the short /u/ shows strong tendencies to shift towards a lower position of an [o] vowel. In SI and SA, this shift seems to be a correlate of syllable structure, with lowering occurring mostly in closed syllables. It is possible that Persian, as the dominant language in the area, has had an influence on these dialects and caused a lowering tendency among the higher vowels. The vowel systems in these dialects differ slightly from each other. Phonemically, the pairs e/eː, a/aː, u/uː, and the long vowels /iː/ and /oː/ are suggested for IR; the pairs a/aː, u/uː, the short /e/ and the long /iː/ as well as the diphthongs /ie/ and /ue/ substituted for the long /eː/ and /oː/, respectively, are suggested for KH; and finally the pairs e/eː, a/aː, o/oː, and the long vowels /iː/ and /uː/, which make a more symmetrical inventory, are suggested for the SI, SA, and CH dialects. In general, the vowels in these dialects show a range of phonetic variations. In addition, processes of fronting, which is most common in coronal contexts, and nasalization, which mostly occurs in nasal envi-ronments, are observed in the data researched.

Abstract:

The present study aims to address the question of how vowel quality varies between rural and town-dwelling male speakers of Irish-English in South Roscommon, Ireland. Previous studies have identified four distinct varieties of Irish-English in Ireland: the Eastern, South &Western, Midland, and Northern varieties, loosely based on the political provinces of Munster, Connaught, Leinster, and Ulster. County Roscommon straddles the provinces of Connaught and Leinster, complicating the presence of phonological features associated with one of two different ‘accent regions’. The last phonological study carried out in Roscommon was by Patrick Leo Henry in 1957. While this was a promising start in assessing regional distinctions, rural ones in particular, the lack of recent studies leaves a sizeable gap that does not address modern changes in the linguistic landscape of Ireland, nor the availability of modern methods of acoustic analysis. In particular, the present study investigates the pre-nasal merging of front unrounded vowels /ɛ/ and /ɪ/, vowel centralization, and a lower /æ/, associated with the Western variety of Irish English. Factors such as supraregionalization lead to my hypothesis that rural speakers will demonstrate higher frequency of the vowel features associated with the Western variety. To assess the frequency of certain vowel sounds, twenty participants were recorded and formant data was extracted for F1 and F2 values of the tokens. It was found that the rural speakers in Roscommon demonstrated a more prominent merger between /ɛ/ and /ɪ/, a lower [æ], and the rural speakers demonstrated an overall trend toward centralization.

Esta tese situa-se no campo de pesquisas sobre a relação entre fonologia e aquisição da escrita a partir da ideia de que o inventário fonológico da criança pode ser modificado com a apropriação do sistema escrito. O objetivo geral deste trabalho é descrever e analisar os dados relacionados à grafia das vogais do PB na escrita inicial, a fim de contribuir para com a discussão relativa à constituição e à representação fonológica do sistema vocálico do português, a partir do Modelo Representacional com base em Restrições de Clements (2001). Os objetivos específicos são a) descrever e analisar os erros relacionados à grafia das vogais extraídos de produções escritas de crianças brasileiras que cursam os anos iniciais; b) discutir os dados de escrita comparando-os com os resultados obtidos nos estudos sobre o processo de aquisição fonológica do sistema vocálico do PB; c) discutir os dados de escrita comparandoos com os resultados obtidos em estudos referentes à variação linguística observada em relação ao funcionamento do sistema vocálico; d) discutir a relação entre os dados de escrita e os dados obtidos a partir de análises acústicas referentes às vogais do PB; e) refletir sobre a constituição e a representação do sistema vocálico a partir das relações estabelecidas entre a escrita inicial e a fonologia. Os dados de análise foram obtidos por meio de constituição de 3 amostras. A primeira amostra é composta de dados de escrita espontânea de crianças pertencentes à escola pública e à escola particular. A segunda são dados de escrita controlada obtidos por instrumentos de coletas específicos que permitiram a produção de palavras com as vogais nas diferentes posições átonas. A última amostra é composta por dados de produção oral de crianças de escola pública e particular com o objetivo de analisar a produção das vogais pretônicas suscetíveis ao alçamento sem motivação aparente ou resultante de harmonia vocálica. Os resultados obtidos na análise de dados de escrita mostram que a maioria dos erros se relacionam à grafia da vogal coronal em se comparando com a vogal dorsal e que com o avanço das séries há uma diminuição geral no número de erros. Nos dados de produção oral foi observado que as crianças se utilizam, inicialmente, de vogais altas e intermediárias para produzir o processo de alçamento e que, com o avanço nas séries, passam em alguns casos a produzir uma vogal média. A partir do Modelo de Economia Representacional com Base em Restrições de Clements (2001), pode-se perceber que o sistema pretônico da criança é constituído inicialmente de vogais altas e baixas, ou seja, ela teria observado o que é distintivo na sua língua. Posteriormente, com a aquisição da escrita, aconteceria uma atualização desse conhecimento e a crianças perceberia na variação a existência de vogais médias, constituindo, assim, um sistema pretônico de cinco vogais.
This thesis is situated in the research field on the relation between phonology and writing acquisition from the idea that the phonological inventory of the child can be modified with the appropriation of the written system. The main objective of this present study is to describe and analyze data related to the spelling of vowels in the PB initial writing in order to contribute to the discussion concerning the formation and the phonological representation of the vowel system of the Portuguese from the Representational Model based on Restrictions Clements (2001 ) . The specific objectives are a) to describe and analyze the related spelling errors of vowels extracted from written productions of Brazilian children who attend the early years of school ; b ) discuss the written data by comparing them with the results obtained in studies on the process of acquisition of phonological vowel system of PB ; c ) discuss the written data comparing them with the results obtained in studies relating to linguistic variation in relation to the functioning of the vowel system ; d ) discuss the relationship between the written data and data obtained from acoustic analysis regarding the members of the PB ; e) reflect on the constitution and representation of the vowel system from the relationship established between the initial writing and phonology . The analyzed data were obtained by incorporation of 3 samples . The first sample data is consisted from spontaneous writing of children in the public school and private school. The second data is controlled through specific writing instruments that allowed the production of words with different vowels in unstressed positions . The final sample consists of oral production data of children from public and private schools with the aim to analyze the production of pretonic vowels susceptible to raising no apparent cause or result of vowel harmony . The results obtained in the analysis of written data show that most of the spelling errors are related to the coronal vowel in comparison with the dorsal vowel and with the advancement of the early primary grades must be a general decrease in the number of errors . In oral production data was observed that children initially use high and intermediate vowels to produce the process of lifting device and that , with the advancement in the series ,the students start to pronounce the sound of a mid vowel . From The Model -Based Economy Representational Restrictions Clements (2001 ) , one can notice that the pretonic child system is initially made up of high and low vowels , ie he/she would have observed what is distinctive in his/her language . Later on, with the acquisition of writing, an update knowledge would happen and children would understand the existence of variation in the middle vowels, thus forming a system of five pretonic vowels.

Abstract:

The sound category of the vowel quantity is applied in the structure of languages in different ways, and its adaptation from one system to another is difficult. The subject of the paper is the difficulties Russian speakers have in the production of Czech texts with more long vowels in a row, i.e., in a situation that does not exist in Russian. Sample of Czech created for the purpose of the experiment and recorded by Russian and Czech native speakers serve as the basis. The success in the realization of quantity in Russian speakers as assessed by Czech native listeners was monitored, and the duration values of short and long vowels and their ratio in the speech of Russian and Czech speakers were compared.
