    In: Journal of Phonetics (1984) 12: 345-354. On the nature of labial velar shift Raymond Hickey Bonn University Abstract Labial velar shift is a common diachronic occurrence in various languages which in recent works on phonology has been captured by the reintroduction of the Jakobsonian feature [grave]. The type of shift involved, the form and direction it takes is a matter which has received insufficient attention. The present study is an attempt to account for this shift by viewing manifestations of it in Romance, Celtic, Germanic, Slavic and Uralic. The essential difference between lenition and labial velar shift is emphasized and the notion of favouring conditions for the shift (the phonotactic environment of the segments involved) is introduced. In all cases the acoustic (and hence autditory) similarity of the segments which undergo shifting is seen to be the triggering factor. It is by now commonplace to maintain that a phonological framework must take cognizance of, and provide notational means for describing, the interrelatedness of labial and velar segments. Evidence abounds in a variety of languages (see below) that labials and velars relate in a manner which say labials and dentals do not. In early distinctive feature theory (Jakobson and Halle, 1956, p. 43) this fact could be captured by the use of the feature [grave]. It was also quickly recognized by linguists after the publication of Chomsky and Halle (1968) that the abandoning of the feature [grave] constituted a loss in generalization (Ladefoged, 1972, p.44; Hyman, 1973; Lass and Anderson, 1975, p.187). However, in those works where the necessity for the feature [grave] is insisted upon (Davidsen-Nielsen and Ørum, 1978, p.201; Sommerstein, 1977, p.

  • At the Juncture of Prosody, Phonology, and Phonetics – the Interaction of Phrasal and Syllable Structure in Shaping the Timing of Consonant Gestures∗
    At the juncture of prosody, phonology, and phonetics – the interaction of phrasal and syllable structure in shaping the timing of consonant gestures∗ Dani Byrd and Susie Choi The Laboratory Phonology research paradigm has established that abstract phonological structure has direct reflections in the spatiotemporal details of speech production. Past exploration of the complex relationship between lin- guistic structural properties and articulation has resulted in a softening of a severance between phonetics and phonology, which in recent years has begun to likewise encompass the phonetics-prosody interface. The abstract organiza- tion not only of words, but also of phrases, has a complex and rich effect on the articulatory details of speech production. This paper considers how phono- logical and prosodic structure interact in shaping the temporal realization of consonant sequences. Specifically, we examine the influence on articulatory timing of syllable structure effects in onset, coda, and heterosyllabic positions, and prosodic effects in the vicinity of a variety of phrase boundary conditions that grade in strength. Simultaneously, this work seeks to test and refine the π- gesture theoretical model of prosodic representation in speech production (Byrd & Saltzman 2003). 1. Introduction Three of the founders of Laboratory Phonology – Beckman, Ladd, and Pierre- humbert – describe its research paradigm as “involving the cooperation of peo- ple...whoshareaconcernforstrengtheningfoundations of phonology through improved methodology, explicit modeling, and cumulation of results” (Pier- rehumbert, Beckman, and Ladd 2001). Over the preceding nine Laboratory Phonology conferences, leading research in linguistic speech experimentation has clearly established that many aspects of abstract phonological structure are directly reflected in the spatiotemporal details of speech production.

  • Effects of Instruction on L2 Pronunciation Development: a Synthesis of 15 Quasiexperimental Intervention Studies
    RESEARCH ISSUES TESOL Quarterly publishes brief commentaries on aspects of qualitative and quantitative research. Edited by CONSTANT LEUNG King’s College London Effects of Instruction on L2 Pronunciation Development: A Synthesis of 15 Quasi- Experimental Intervention Studies KAZUYA SAITO Waseda University Tokyo, Japan doi: 10.1002/tesq.67 & Over the past 25 years second language (L2) acquisition research has paid considerable attention to the effectiveness of instruction on L2 morphosyntax development, and the findings of relevant empirical studies have been extensively summarized using narrative review meth- ods (e.g., Ellis, 2002) as well as meta-analytic review methods (e.g., Spada & Tomita, 2010). These researchers have reached a consensus that (a) integrating language focus into meaning-oriented classrooms is more effective than a purely naturalistic approach, and (b) contextu- alized grammar teaching methods (e.g., focus-on-form instruction, form-focused instruction) is more effective than decontexualized gram- mar teaching methods (e.g., focus-on-formS instruction, grammar- translation method). What is surprising in this vein of L2 acquisition studies, however, is the lack of research in the area of L2 pronuncia- tion development. Pronunciation teaching has been notorious for its overdependence on decontextualized practice such as mechanical drills and repetition, reminiscent of the audiolingual teaching meth- ods of several decades ago (for discussion, see Celce-Murcia, Brinton, Goodwin, & Griner, 2010). Furthermore, very few language teachers actually receive adequate training in the specific area of pronunciation teaching (Foote, Holtby, & Derwing, 2011). 842 TESOL QUARTERLY Vol. 46, No. 4, December 2012 © 2012 TESOL International Association In recent years, several researchers have made strong calls for research on teaching for intelligible (rather than native-like) pronunciation.

Abbas Pourhossein Gilakjani (Corresponding author) School of Educational Studies, Universiti Sains Malaysia, Malaysia 3A-05-06 N-Park Jalan Batu Uban 11700 Gelugor Pulau Pinang Malaysia Tel: 60-174-181-660 E-mail: [email protected] Mohammad Reza Ahmadi School of Educational Studies, Universiti Sains Malaysia, Malaysia 3A-05-06 N-Park Alan Batu Uban 1700 Gelugor Pulau Pinang Malaysia Tel: 60-175-271-870 E-mail: [email protected] Received: January 8, 2011 Accepted: March 21, 2011 doi:10.5539/elt.v4n3p74 Abstract In many English language classrooms, teaching pronunciation is granted the least attention. When ESL teachers defend the poor pronunciation skills of their students, their arguments could either be described as a cop-out with respect to their inability to teach their students proper pronunciation or they could be regarded as taking a stand against linguistic influence. If we learn a second language in childhood, we learn to speak it fluently and without a ‘foreign accent’; if we learn in adulthood, it is very unlikely that we will attain a native accent. In this study, the researchers first review misconceptions about pronunciation, factors affecting the learning of pronunciation. Then, the needs of learners and suggestions for teaching pronunciation will be reviewed. Pronunciation has a positive effect on learning a second language and learners can gain the skills they need for effective communication in English. Keywords: Pronunciation, Learning, Teaching, Misconceptions, Factors, Needs, Suggestions 1. Introduction General observation suggests that it is those who start to learn English after their school years are most likely to have serious difficulties in acquiring intelligible pronunciation, with the degree of difficulty increasing markedly with age.

Phonological typology, rhythm types and the phonetics-phonology interface. A methodological overview and three case studies on Italo- Romance dialects Stephan Schmid 1. Introduction Phonological typology has mainly concentrated on phoneme inventories and on implicational universals, whereas the notion of ‘language type’ ap- pears to be less appealing from a phonological perspective. An interesting candidate for establishing language types on the grounds of phonological or phonetic criteria would have come from the dichotomy of ‘stress-timing’ vs. ‘syllable-timing’, if instrumental research carried out by a number of phoneticians had not invalidated the fundamental claim of the so-called ‘isochrony hypothesis’. Nevertheless, the idea of classifying languages according to their rhythmic properties has continued to inspire linguists and phoneticians, giving rise to two diverging methodological perspectives. The focus of the first framework mainly lies on how phonological processes relate to prosodic domains, in particular to the syllable and to the phonolog- ical word.

  • To Appear in TESOL Quarterly 2015 (Wiley-Blackwell) Do Native Speakers of North American and Singapore English Differentially Pe
    To appear in TESOL Quarterly 2015 (Wiley-Blackwell) Do Native Speakers of North American and Singapore English Differentially Perceive Comprehensibility in Second Language Speech? Kazuya Saito and Natsuko Shintani Abstract The current study examined the extent to which native speakers of North American and Singapore English differentially perceive the comprehensibility (ease of understanding) of second language (L2) speech. Spontaneous speech samples elicited from 50 Japanese learners of English with various proficiency levels were first rated by 10 Canadian and 10 Singaporean raters for overall comprehensibility, and then submitted to pronunciation, fluency, vocabulary, and grammar analyses. Whereas the raters’ comprehensibility judgements were generally influenced by phonological and temporal qualities as primary cues, and, to a lesser degree, lexical and grammatical qualities of L2 speech as secondary cues, their linguistic backgrounds did make some impact on their L2 speech assessment patterns. The Singaporean raters, who not only used various models of English but also spoke a few L2s on a daily basis in a multilingual environment, tended to assign more lenient comprehensibility scores due to their relatively high sensitivity to, in particular, lexicogrammatical information. On the other hand, the comprehensibility judgements of the Canadian raters, who used only North American English in a monolingual environment, were mainly determined by the phonological accuracy and fluency of the L2 speech.

  • Under-Researched Languages: Phonetic Results from Language Archives
    Under-Researched Languages: Phonetic Results from Language Archives D. H. Whalen Joyce McDonough 1942 Language archives are becoming increasingly available, allowing new possibilities for phonetic analysis, especially for under-researched and endangered languages. A large number of the world's languages lack adequate phonetic documentation and depend on impressionistic descriptions of their sound patterns. Many of the world’s most typologically unusual contrasts or phonological patterns have been reported in languages with small numbers of speakers that consequently have not received attention from academic researchers. To gain a greater understanding of the phonetic patterns present in human languages and to better inform phonetic and phonological theory, data from under-resourced and endangered languages and language communities is crucial. Archives allow the efficient use of resources by making acoustic records available, but the decisions made in the creation and curation of archives affect what analyses are possible, based on the level of detail in the analysis accompanying the sound files. In this chapter, we describe some currently existing language archives, focusing on those that contain data primarily from endangered languages. We summarize a selection of the papers that have performed phonetic analysis on data from those archives and close with some recommendations for archives that would make phonetic analysis of archived material more feasible and that would also provide greater reward for depositors of this valuable material. Introduction The upsurge in documentation of languages, especially endangered ones, that has occurred in the past decades has produced a large amount of potential data for linguistic research, including phonetic research. The increasingly common inclusion of spoken material in archived audio and video recordings potentially provides the means to document the sound and gesture patterns and phonetic properties of spoken and signed language, aspects of language not recoverable from written text.
