An example of this apparently unnecessary repair is the tendency to insert a vowel after a word-final stop in English borrowed words into Korean (e.g., peak → [phikh]), even when the forms would be pronounceable in Korean, since native Korean words may end in stops. The goal of this dissertation is to investigate the effects of different linguistic factors on the likelihood of vowel insertion and to determine whether this unmotivated vowel insertion derives from the misperception of English words or from a production grammar maintaining perceptual similarity between the English form and Korean pronunciation. The linguistic factors that this work examines are: (i) primary factors: stop release, stop voicing, and tenseness of pre-stop vowel, (ii) secondary factors: stop place and final stress, and (iii) other factors: morphological alternation and word size. I separate out the effects of these factors in a series of experiments designed to help in deciding between the adaptation-in-perception approach vs. the adaptation- in-production approach. The experiments that I conducted for my study were: (i) a production task, where Korean speakers were asked to listen to English nonce words ending in a stop and to repeat what they heard; (ii) a syllable counting task, in which Korean speakers listened to English nonce words ending in a stop and indicated the number of syllables they heard in each word; (iii) a categorization task, where Korean listeners heard English nonce words ending in a stop or a stop followed by a vowel and categorized each word as consonant-final or vowel-final; and (iv) a similarity judgment task, in which Korean speakers listened to a triplet consisting of an English stop-final form and two Korean forms, one ending in a stop and one ending in stop- vowel, and indicated which of the two Korean forms the English form sounded more similar to. The results of these different tasks indicate that unnecessary vowel insertion is not a straightforward outcome that happens in adaptation but an intricate linguistic phenomenon that involves the complex interaction of perception and production. iii Table of Contents List of Figures ··························································································· vi List of Tables

  • Phonetics Versus Phonology: English Word Final /S/ in Korean Loanword
    Lingua 116 (2006) 1008–1023 www.elsevier.com/locate/lingua Phonetics versus phonology: English word final /s/ in Korean loanword phonology Stuart Davis a,*, Mi-Hui Cho b a Department of Linguistics, Memorial Hall 322, 1021 E. 3rd Street, Indiana University, Bloomington, IN 47405, USA b Kyonggi University, Seoul, South Korea Received 31 December 2004; received in revised form 7 March 2005; accepted 6 June 2005 Available online 3 October 2005 Abstract In this paper we consider various perspectives on loanword phonology by examining the borrowing into Korean of English words having a word-final /s/. These have been borrowed into Korean with a tense [ ] followed by an epenthetic vowel, as illustrated by the borrowing of English bus as [ 3 ]. The realization of English word-final /s/ as [ ] is apparently unexpected given that English [s] and Korean plain (or lax) [s] seem to be quite similar. Moreover, English /s/ when part of a consonant cluster is consistently borrowed as lax [s] in Korean as exemplified by the borrowing of English test as [thes th ]. Kim (1999) and Kim and Curtis (2002) claim that the borrowing of final /s/ as tense [ ] versus its borrowing in a cluster as lax [s] is a case where subphonemic (nonprimary) acoustic properties in both languages are at issue, and thus are supportive of a perceptual matching approach to loanwords. According to them, the property at issue is consonantal duration. They show that English /s/ in a cluster has a shorter duration than /s/ alone and this correlates with the durational difference between tense [ ] and lax [s] in Korean.

Johnson b, David P. Kuehn b a Department of Audiology and Speech Pathology, University of Tennessee at Knoxville, 578 South Stadium Hall, Knoxville, TN 37996-0740, United States b University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, United States Received 30 January 2008; received in revised form 13 November 2008; accepted 5 January 2009 Abstract A significant number of bilinguals in English-speaking countries speak Korean as their first language. One such country is the United States (U.S.). As the U.S. becomes increasingly diverse, providing more effective services for culturally and linguistically diverse children is a critical issue and growing challenge for speech-language pathologists. The U.S. Census Bureau reports that the number of Korean immigrants in the U.S. has steadily increased over the past decade. As a result, a greater number of children who speak Korean as a first or second language may need speech, language, and hearing services. This paper provides a review of the literature on (1) phonological characteristics of the Korean language and (2) speech sound acquisition and developmental patterns for phonological processes in Korean children. We illustrate how language knowledge of Korean might impact the learning of English based on case studies of three Korean children speaking English in the U.S. We describe considerations for more appropriate evaluation and treatment of speech sound disorders in Korean-English-speaking children.

It is generally accepted that the processes whereby loan-words are “copied” to the target language’s phonology are fundamentally different from language-internal sound changes. Unlike language-internal sound changes, which occur when the speakers responsible are fully capable of the phonology of the input “source” and the sound changes occur across the entire lexicon, loans tend to be ad hoc, show inconsistent correspondences, and need only meet well-formedness conditions within the target language.

  • Between Natural and Unnatural Phonology: the Case of Cluster-Splitting Epenthesis Juliette Blevins the Graduate Center, CUNY
    Chapter 1 Between natural and unnatural phonology: The case of cluster-splitting epenthesis Juliette Blevins The Graduate Center, CUNY A widely recognized feature of loan-word phonology is the resolution of clusters by vowel epenthesis. When a language lacking word-initial clusters borrows words from a language with initial #TRV sequences, T an oral stop and R a liquid, it is common to find vowel epenthesis, most typically vowel-copy, as in, for example: Basque <gurutze> ‘cross’ from Latin <cruce(m)>; Q’eqchi’ <kurus> ‘cross’ from Spanish <cruz> ‘cross’, or Fijian <kolosi> ‘cross’ from English <cross>. The phonological rule or sound change responsible for this pat- tern is sometimes called “cluster-splitting epenthesis”: #TRVi > #TV(i)RVi. The most widely accepted explanation for this pattern is that vowel epenthesis between the oral stop andthe following sonorant is due to the vowel-like nature of the TR transition, since #TRVi is per- ceptually similar to #TV(i)RVi. A fact not often appreciated, however, is that cluster-splitting epenthesis is extremely rare as a language-internal development. The central premise of this chapter is that #TRVi in a non-native language is heard or perceived as #TV(i)RVi when phonotactics of the native language demand TV transitions. Without this cognitive compo- nent, cluster-splitting epenthesis is rare and, as argued here, decidedly unnatural. 1 Introduction Diachronic explanations have been offered for both natural and unnatural sound pat- terns in human spoken languages. Building on the Neogrammarian tradition, as well as the experimental research program of Ohala (e.g. 1971; 1974; 1993), it is argued that natural sound patterns, like final obstruent devoicing, nasal place assimilation, vowel harmony, consonant lenition, and many others, arise from regular sound changes with clear phonetic bases (Blevins 2004, 2006, 2008, 2015; Anderson 2016).

  • A Study of Korean Phonology and Morphology in a Derivational Approach
    Ecology of PF: A Study of Korean Phonology and Morphology in a Derivational Approach Inkie Chung, Ph.D. University of Connecticut, 2007 This dissertation studies the component of PF, i.e., morphology, phonology and phonetics, in Korean in a consistently derivational approach. Using phonological arguments and an acoustic phonetic study, chapter 2 identifies the surface syllable structure. It also recognizes the two syllable structure constraints: the complex onset constraint and the branching nucleus constraint. Using this syllable structure and these constraints, chapter 3 provides a comprehensive analysis of hiatus in verbal morphology and related issues within Calabrese’s (1995, 2002a) Dynamic Phonology framework. A limited number of actual outcomes for similar hiatus configurations show that the constraint-induced repairs are not finite but limited, and subject to the general principle of economy. It is shown that economy chooses shorter derivations over longer ones, when more than one derivation is possible and yield the same final outcome. It also show's that the hiatus constraint is a non-surface, cyclic constraint, operating once per morphophonological cycle. Furthermore, it argues that certain phonological operations must be described with the traditional rule-like formalism. It is also pointed out that the syllable structure constraints identified in chapter 2 are surface constraints. Chapters 4 and 5 provide a morphological study in Distributed Morphology (Bobaljik 2000, Halle and Marantz 1993, Marantz 2006) With verbal and adjectival roots exhibiting negative and honorific suppletion, these chapters identify the morphological structure of the inflected predicates (and hence phrase structure to a certain extent) in Korean. It identifies the paradoxical situation arising from the interaction of negative Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner.

  • Typological Adaptation of Japanese Stops in Korean*
    Linguistic Research 28(1), 75-93 Typological Adaptation of Japanese Stops in Korean* Juhee Lee (Kyung Hee University) Lee, Juhee. 2011. Typological Adaptation of Japanese Stops in Korean. Linguistic Research 28(1), 75-93. This paper examines the loanword adaptation patterns for Japanese stops into Korean. Numerous approaches have been used on the interaction between L1 and L2 as well as the phonetics and phonology interface for loanword adaptation (Silverman 1992, Yip 1993, Lee 2003, LaCharité and Paradis 2005, Kenstowicz and Suchato 2006, Ito et al. 2006, etc.). In this discussion, by using Japanese loanwords into Korean, we propose that the loan adaptation of laryngeal features depends heavily on the typological characteristics. More specifically, we argue that the phonemic vs. phonetic mapping patterns can be decided based on the laryngeal typology of the target and the recipient languages. Then, we show how the phonetic factors such as closure duration and voice onset time (VOT) function for the loanword adaptation. (Kyung Hee University) Key Words Japanese stops, VOT, closure duration, loanword, typology 1. Introduction As is widely known, there are numerous types of loanwords in the Korean lexicon. Due to historical factors, massive borrowing from Japanese occurred during the period between the late 18C and the first half of the 20C. Recently, many borrowings from English, filling lexical gaps or adding newly coined words, have also become crucial parts of the Korean language.

  • The Phonetics and Phonology of Korean Loanword Adaptation*
    The phonetics and phonology of Korean loanword adaptation* Michael Kenstowicz The paper reviews some of the recent research on Korean loanword adaptation, placing it in a larger theoretical context. Two competing models of loanword adaptation are outlined; they differ on whether the input to adaptation is phonetically or phonologically based. The paper then reviews the adaptation of English liquids and stops in terms of these models. 1. Introduction With the rise of constraint-based formalisms such as Optimality Theory, theoretical interest in loanword adaptation has burgeoned. Loanword phonology involves the intricate interplay between forces that require the loan to conform to native grammar segmental and phonotactic constraints on the one hand, while at the same time remaining faithful to the loan source on the other. A model of input-output mapping that formalizes the resolution of conflicting forces driving the input towards specific output targets seems a priori better suited to model this aspect of linguistic competence than the ordered-rule framework of traditional generative phonology. Also, when viewed from this perspective, languages such as Thai that have little if any morphophonemic alternation (and hence few rules) present sound changes such as style -> [s´taj] that are comparable to those found in English, Russian, etc. and allow these languages to play a more active role in phonological theorizing. Finally, in adapting a loanword, speakers converge on a repair strategy, which often lacks a precedent in the native grammar or sometimes even contradicts native processes raising serious learnability problems. Korean has figured prominently in this line of research. Unlike Mandarin Chinese, which adapts foreign words primarily via calques, Korean joins with Japanese in readily accepting both the phonetic and grammatical faces of a lexical item.
