Phonological And Phonetic Coarticulation

Lecture 4 Phonology 4 0 Coarticulation 4 1 The study of coarticulation provides information about phonological assimilatory processes and sound change patterns. it has been traditionally assumed that coarticulatory effects are phonetic and thus gradual, variable, and universal, while assimilations are phonological and thus categorical, systematic, and language specific. Called coarticulation, at both the phonological and phonetic levels. in general the modern usage is to reserve assimilation to refer to influences of one phonological segment on another, and coarticulation to refer to influences of adjacent or near phonetic segments on one another. phonological assimilation may reflect the phonetic tendencies.

Ppt Phonology The Sound Pattern Of Language Powerpoint Presentation This account of coarticulation has implications for analyses that attempt to explain phonological generalizations in terms of phonologization of coarticulation. phonologization is hypothesized to be a process by which phonetic phenomena are misinterpreted by listeners as phonological (hyman, 1976, ohala, 1992). Summary. when speech sounds are produced, articulatory movements for one sound overlap with those of the surrounding sounds, generating articulatory and acoustic signals that at any point in time are informative about two or more sounds, not just one. this process of intermingling of information about several speech sounds in the articulatory. Phonological and phonetic coarticulation. phonological aspects of coarticulation (allophonic variation) are accounted for by means of feature sharing. both vowels and consonants have vocalic place features. vowels and glides are fully specified for voc features, but: l is &quotclear" in onset, "dark" in coda r is unspecified for rounding.

Diachrony and phonology. an increasing number of phonologists point to diachronic sound change and the reanalysis of phonetic coarticulation as the source of phonological generalizations. phonologization (hyman,1976; bermúdez otero, 2007) maximal dispersion (boersma & hamann, 2008) markedness (blevins, 2004). Phonetic patterns vs. phonological ones, e.g. coarticulation vs. assimilation. we turn to the nature of these patterns and the source of the similarity in the next subsection in anticipation of the question of whether phonology and phonetics constitute a single domain or two distinct domains. 2.2 similarity between coarticulation and assimilation.
