It constitutes a significant experiment in international cooperation under the auspices of the International Committee on Computational Linguistics in an area of increasing importance within contemporary science and technology. The Language Information Network and Clearinghouse System (LILACS) project of th Center for Applied Linguistics has initiated an appropriate data base to which valuable bibliographic information is being contributed by a number of cooperating institutions in several countries. With support from the National Science Foundation, the concept of cooperation is being explored with a view toward the eventual establishment of an international information network for the language sciences. To the extent possible, new ways of processing and publishing bibliographic data will be investigated. Technical complexity and economic considerations will of necessity limit our innovations. The active cooperation of all the users of Language and Autc nation is vited. Institutions willing to join the cooperative network for bibliographic information are asked to contact the executive editor at their earliest convenience. Readers are urged to send in their comments, so that Language and Automation can be made more responsive to their needs. A. Hood Roberts Alfred Pietrzyk Adam G.

    La Trobe University DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS ALGOL 60 Programming on the DECSystem 10 David Woodhouse Revised, August 1975 MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA ALGOL 60 Programming on the DECSystem 10 David Woodhouse Revised, August 1975 CE) David Woodhouse National Library of Australia card number and ISBN. ISBN 0 85816 066 8 INTRODUCTION This text is intended as a complete primer on ALGOL 60 programming. It refers specifically to Version 4 of the DECSystem 10 implementation. However, it avoids idiosyncracies as far as possible, and so should be useful in learning the language on other machines. The few features in the DEC ALGOL manual which are not mentioned here should not be needed until the student is sufficiently advanced to be using this text for reference only. Exercises at the end of each chapter illustrate the concepts introduced therein, and full solutions are given. I should like to thank Mrs. K. Martin and Mrs. M.

  • Chapter 1 Basic Principles of Programming Languages
    Chapter 1 Basic Principles of Programming Languages Although there exist many programming languages, the differences among them are insignificant compared to the differences among natural languages. In this chapter, we discuss the common aspects shared among different programming languages. These aspects include: programming paradigms that define how computation is expressed; the main features of programming languages and their impact on the performance of programs written in the languages; a brief review of the history and development of programming languages; the lexical, syntactic, and semantic structures of programming languages, data and data types, program processing and preprocessing, and the life cycles of program development. At the end of the chapter, you should have learned: what programming paradigms are; an overview of different programming languages and the background knowledge of these languages; the structures of programming languages and how programming languages are defined at the syntactic level; data types, strong versus weak checking; the relationship between language features and their performances; the processing and preprocessing of programming languages, compilation versus interpretation, and different execution models of macros, procedures, and inline procedures; the steps used for program development: requirement, specification, design, implementation, testing, and the correctness proof of programs. The chapter is organized as follows. Section 1.1 introduces the programming paradigms, performance, features, and the development of programming languages. Section 1.2 outlines the structures and design issues of programming languages. Section 1.3 discusses the typing systems, including types of variables, type equivalence, type conversion, and type checking during the compilation. Section 1.4 presents the preprocessing and processing of programming languages, including macro processing, interpretation, and compilation.

Master of Arts (Linguistics), May 2003, 77 pp., 12 tables, 4 charts, 2 figures, references, 172 titles. This thesis tests the hypothesis that a whole language approach to ESL (English As A Second Language) pronunciation with emphasis on suprasegementals through the use of linguistic mimicry is more effective than a focus on segmentals in improving native speakers perceptions of accent and comprehensibility of ESL students’ pronunciation of English. The thesis is organized into seven chapters. Chapter 2 is a discussion of the factors that affect the degree of foreign accent in second language acquisition. Chapter 3 gives a background on current ESL pedagogy followed by a description of the linguistic mimicry approach used in this research in Chapter 4. Chapter 5 and 6 are discussion of Materials and Methods and Conclusions and Implications.

In constraint-based models of phonological learning, it is hypothesized that prior learning of phonotactics from the lexicon facilitates the learning of alternations. While this is an influential assumption, the empirical evidence for it is equivocal. In this dissertation, I investigate this link by examining the learning outcomes in cases where phonotactics and alternations mismatch, particularly in cases of derived environment effects. For example, in Korean, /t/ palatalizes to [c] before [i] across a morpheme boundary, yet [ti] sequences are attested within stems. Derived-environment effects have proven theoretically challenging to account for precisely because of the mismatch in generalizations within stems and across morpheme boundaries. Using an artificial grammar learning paradigm, I first show that alternation learning is facilitated when the phonotactics in the lexicon match the alternation.

  • Why Teaching Pronunciation to Spanish L2 Learners Matters
    UCLA Voices Title Why Teaching Pronunciation to Spanish L2 Learners Matters Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/51q604qx Journal Voices, 2(1) Author Meléndez-Ballesteros, Nancy Publication Date 2014 License https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/ 4.0 Peer reviewed eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Why Teaching Pronunciation to Spanish L2 Learners Matters Nancy Meléndez-Ballesteros University of California, Los Angeles Centro de Estudios del Español de Estados Unidos (CEEEUS) Abstract In an increasingly globalized world, second language learners need to learn how to communi- cate effectively and confidently. In this context, pronunciation is crucial. In this paper, I show that placing emphasis on form in a classroom environment helps with the perception and the production of a more native-like L2 (in this study, Spanish).* Keywords: accuracy, audio-visual imitation tasks, focused-attention, fluency, native-accent pronunciation, perception-production 1. Introduction and background. Learning a second language entails the accumulation of an unfamiliar linguistic system that may or may not be similar to that of the second language (henceforth, L2) learner. It is assumed that learners carry within the language storage area(s) specific linguistic knowledge of their first language that could interfere with the proper or full attainment of a second language. Over the course of the past two-three decades, much of the research on L2 acquisition and second language instruction has mostly focused on the teaching of general aspects of an L2 (i.e., grammar, vocabulary, orthography, etc.) without paying much attention to Pronunciation. This has inadvertently contributed to the non-or improper-attainment of the L2 phonological system; thus, introducing in the Spanish-speaking world or community, speakers with moderate to heavy accented speech.

  • Linguistic Typology 2019; 23(2): 263–302
    Linguistic Typology 2019; 23(2): 263–302 Joan Bybee and Shelece Easterday Consonant strengthening: A crosslinguistic survey and articulatory proposal https://doi.org/10.1515/lingty-2019-0015 Received April 16, 2018; accepted December 07, 2018 Abstract: Given the common intuition that consonant lenition occurs more often than fortition, we formulate this as a hypothesis, defining these sound change types in terms of decrease or increase in oral constriction. We then test the hypothesis on allophonic processes in a diverse sample of 81 languages. With the hypothesis confirmed, we examine the input and output of such sound changes in terms of manner and place of articulation and find that while decrease in oral constriction (weakening) affects most consonant types, increase in oral constriction (strengthening) is largely restricted to palatal and labial glides. We conclude that strengthening does not appear to be the simple inverse of weakening. In conclusion we suggest some possible avenues for explaining how glide strengthening may result from articulatory production pressures and speculate that strengthening and weakening can be encompassed under a single theory of sound change resulting from the automatization of production. Keywords: phonology, consonant strengthening, lenition and fortition, allopho- nic variation, sound change, automatization 1 Introduction It is generally agreed that lenition is much more common than fortition in sound changes as well as phonological processes across the languages of the world.1 This asymmetry suggests the need for special attention to fortition in order to determine if it is the simple inverse of lenition or a different phenomenon. The Author Contribution Statement: Joan Bybee and Shelece Easterday contributed equally to the data collection, analysis, and writing of this paper 1 See Section 3 for references and discussion.
