Autosegmental-metrical phonology – Unpacking the boxes
Autosegmental-metrical phonology has shown itself to be a highly successful framework for the description, analysis and comparison of the prosody of many of the world’s languages.

Analysis of Phonological Processes of Consonants in Farimani Dialect based on Autosegmental Phonology [PDF]
In Autosegmental phonology introduced by Goldsmith as an independent field of generative phonology, phonological representations are made up of different layers. In this approach, each feature or group of features that make a phonological contribution in

The Study of Lenition Processes in Lori Baghmalek Variety: Autosegmental Phonology [PDF]
The purpose of this study is to describe and analyze some of the phonological processes of lenition including spirantization, assimilation, deletion, and compensatory lengthening based on the principles of autosegmental phonology, i.e.

Internal structure of intonational categories: The (dis)appearance of a perceptual magnet effect [PDF]
The question of whether intonation events are speech categories like phonemes and lexical tones has long been a puzzle in prosodic research. In past work, researchers have studied categoricality of pitch accents and boundary tones by examining perceptual

How Autosegmental is Phonology? [PDF]
AbstractIn this paper I raise the following questions: (i) How appropriate/effective are traditional autosegmental representations? (ii) What insights do autosegmental representations help us express? (iii) Where do autosegmental representations fall short? (iv) What does this all mean for phonology?

Foreign Accent Syndrome, a Rare Presentation of Schizophrenia in a 34-Year-Old African American Female: A Case Report and Literature Review. [PDF]
Foreign Accent Syndrome (FAS) is a rare phenomenon where speech is characterized by a new accent to the patient’s native language. More than 100 cases with the syndrome have been published, the majority of which were associated with observed insults of the speech center.

Logic and the Generative Power of Autosegmental Phonology
<p>Autosegmental Phonology is studied in the framework of Formal Language Theory, which classifies the computational complexity of patterns. In contrast to previous computational studies of Autosegmental Phonology, which were mainly concerned with finite-state implementations of the formalism, a methodology for a model-theoretic study of ...

Modeling Sonority in Terms of Pitch Intelligibility With the Nucleus Attraction Principle
Abstract Sonority is a fundamental notion in phonetics and phonology, central to many descriptions of the syllable and various useful predictions in phonotactics. Although widely accepted, sonority lacks a clear basis in speech articulation or perception, given that traditional formal principles in linguistic theory are often exclusively based on ...

Editorial: Perspectives on Nordic phonology
In this editorial, we first offer a glimpse of the scope and traditions of studying phonology in the Nordic countries and how these are mirrored in the aims of FiNo and the topics presented at its 2020 workshop.
