  • Prevocalic T-Glottaling Across Word Boundaries in Midland American
    hon la Laboratory Phonology Kaźmierski, K. 2020 Prevocalic t-glottaling across word boundaries lab Journal of the Association for in Midland American English. Laboratory Phonology: Journal of Laboratory Phonology phon the Association for Laboratory Phonology 11(1): 13, pp. 1–23. DOI: https://doi.org/10.5334/labphon.271 JOURNAL ARTICLE Prevocalic t-glottaling across word boundaries in Midland American English Kamil Kaźmierski Department of Contemporary English Language, Faculty of English at Adam Mickiewicz University, Poznań, PL [email protected] Rates of t-glottaling across word boundaries in both preconsonantal and prevocalic contexts have recently been claimed to be positively correlated with the frequency of occurrence of a given word in preconsonantal contexts (Eddington & Channer, 2010). Words typically followed by consonants have been argued to have their final /t/s glottaled more often than words less frequently followed by consonants. This paper includes a number of ‘internal’ and ‘external’ predictors in a mixed-effects logistic regression model and has two goals: (1) to replicate the positive correlation of the frequency of occurrence of a word in preconsonantal contexts (its ‘contextual frequency’) with its rates of t-glottaling in both preconsonantal and prevocalic contexts postulated by Eddington and Channer (2010), and (2) to quantify the factors influencing the likelihood of t-glottaling across word boundaries in Midland American English. The effect of contextual frequency has been confirmed. This result is argued to support a hybrid view of phonological storage and processing, one including both abstract and exemplar representations. T-glottaling has also been found to be negatively correlated with bigram frequency and speech rate deviation, while positively correlated with young age in female speakers.

Victòria Alsina, Dra. Jenny Brumme i Dra. Kristin Reinke Barcelona, setembre de 2019 Dedicatòria i Agraïments A mis padres, Guy y Lise, a mi hermana Marion, a Guillermo, a mis directoras, Vicky, Jenny y Kristin, y a todos los que han cruzado mi camino durante estos cincos años de estudios doctorales. Esta tesis lleva un poco de cada uno de vosotros. Resum El present estudi examina com es tradueix el discurs fílmic, especialment els elements marcadors de la variació lingüística, al francès i al castellà, dues llengües pluricèntriques, és a dir, llengües que tenen més d’un centre normatiu. El fet que diverses nacions adoptin mesures per promoure la indústria nacional del doblatge, en general per motius econòmics i culturals, en ocasions porta a duplicar les varietats de doblatge. Per tant, una qüestió clau és saber com es comparen aquestes versions doblades i com aconsegueixen transmetre la variació lingüística i la oralitat prefabricada a través de les seves respectives traduccions. L’objectiu d’aquesta investigació consisteix a examinar quines són les principals diferències i similituds entre el discurs fílmic doblat de Quebec i de França (per al francés) i d’Espanya i Amèrica Llatina (per a l’espanyol), sobre la base d’un estudi de la pel·lícula Death Proof (2007) de Quentin Tarantino. Aquesta pel·lícula va ser seleccionada pel seu alt nivell de variació lingüística i la importància que Tarantino dóna a la llengua (no estàndard) de les seves pel·lícules.

Despite a plethora of standardized 28 measures, few single-word closed-set tests uniformly sample the most frequently used phonemes 29 and use response choices that equally sample phonetic features like place and voicing. The Iowa 30 Test of Consonant Perception (ITCP) attempts to solve this. It is a proportionally balanced 31 phonemic word recognition task designed to assess perception of the initial consonant of 32 monosyllabic consonant-vowel-consonant (CVC) words.

  • Vol11-05 Chad Hall Article
    The Perception of the Vowel Continuum in British and US English Speakers Chad Hall Michigan State University (USA) Abstract In this paper, the perception of the /æ/-/ɛ/ vowel continuum was analysed in British and United States English speakers by testing their word identification across the pan-pen continuum. A clear difference was found between the two speaker groups, with the U.S. speakers continuing to perceive ‘pan’ beyond the British speakers, presumably due to /æ/-tensing in U.S. dialects, particularly before nasal codas. It was found that the amount of /æ/-tensing across phonetic environments in a U.S. speaker’s dialect as well as their exposure to British English affected how they perceived the continuum. The results prove Bell-Berti’s (1979) argument that speech production and perception are closely related, and the steep drop in perception from ‘pan’ to ‘pen’ displayed by both speaker groups may prove that vowel perception is categorical, in contrast to popular opinion, though a discrimination task would have to be run before any reliable claim can be made.

  • Regional Phonological Variants in Louisiana Speech
    REGIONAL PHONOLOGICAL VARIANTS IN LOUISIANA SPEECH By August Weston Rubrecht A Dissertation Presented to the Graduate Council of the University of Florida in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 1971 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank Dr. F. G. Cassidy, Jr., director of the Dictionary of American Regional English, for permission to use the tape recordings on which this study is based, and I want to thank him and the Dictionary staff for doing what they could from such a distance to make the field work as pleasant as possible. I especially recall Mrs. Laura Ducker's cheering notes and letters, and Dr. James Hartman's consideration in assigning additional communities once those in Louisiana had been finished. The names of all those in Louisiana who helped make the field work easier and the field worker more comfortable would comprise a list too long to give here. It would include all my informants, not just those who made tapes, and all those who helped direct me to prospec- tive informants, together with many others whose hospitality I enjoyed. I am especially grateful to the William R. Van Ripers at LSU in Baton Rouge and to Miller Williams, Thomas Preston, and John Mosier and their families at Loyola in New Orleans for their hospitality and assistance. In the writing of the dissertation, I gratefully acknowledge the advice and suggestions of my chairman. Dr. John Algeo, who has helped me avoid or correct a great many errors, omissions, and infelicitous turns of phrase.

  • 1 Free-Classification of American Dialects
    Free-classification of American dialects in three conditions: natural, monotonized, and low-pass filtered speech Undergraduate Research Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation “with research distinction” in Linguistics in the undergraduate colleges of The Ohio State University By Erin Walpole The Ohio State University May 2017 Project Advisor: Professor Cynthia Clopper, Department of Linguistics 1 Abstract The dialects of American English have distinct features: these features include vowel shifts – the Northern Cities Chain Shift and the Southern Chain Shift (Labov, Ash, & Boberg 2006; Clopper, Pisoni, & deJong 2005) − and prosodic variation, including intonation and rhythm (Clopper & Smiljanic 2011, 2015). In the current study, I ran three conditions to test which prosodic cues listeners were using when classifying talkers by regional dialect. American English has six distinct dialects: Northern, Southern, Midland, Mid-Atlantic, Western, and New- England (Labov, Ash, & Boberg 2006). Participants listened to 60 talkers, 10 from each of the six regional American English dialects, and were asked to sort the talkers into groups by dialect using free-classification. All of the talkers read the same sentence, which was manipulated in two of the three conditions. The first condition left the talkers’ voices natural and un-manipulated. The second condition monotonized all of the talkers’ voices. The third condition ran all of the talkers’ voices through a low-pass filter, which removed everything above 400 Hz. Results indicated that all participants, regardless of condition, made about 9 groups of talkers on average. Results also revealed effects of condition and talker dialect on accuracy. For the condition accuracy, the monotonized condition had the most accurate groupings, while the low-pass filtered condition had the least accurate groupings.
