Consonantal tones in Lugbara

Acta Linguistica Hafniensia, 1994
Abstract In his classical introduction to tone languages, Pike (1948:30) noted that “Tonemes in syllables which have initial or final voiced stops are quite frequently a bit different from the same tonemes in syllables where the stops are voiceless. Initial voiced consonants have, of course, some pitch.

A Theory of Consonantal Interaction

Folia Linguistica, 1998
Co-occurrence restrictions on word-initial consonant clusters are traditionally viewed as a consequence of the relative sonority of both members of the CC. In the first part of this paper, I aim to show that the reasoning underlying this approach is circular. The observation that sonority does increase in word-initial clusters is relabelled explanation

Can [Consonantal] Spread?

Language, 1992
Current versions of feature geometry generally locate the features [consonantal] and [sonorant] as annotations on the root node, rather than as normal dependents of that or some other node. This geometry is intended to reflect the observation that, unlike other features, the major class features do not participate in phonological processes such as ...

The authors of this study (abbreviated in the remainder of this paper as WH) have outlined the principal features of the historic phonology of Uto-Aztecan as a whole and of its major branches ...

Sociophonetics of Consonantal Variation

Annual Review of Linguistics, 2016
Although consonantal variation has traditionally been studied using auditory coding, techniques now exist for measuring any kind of consonants acoustically and/or articulatorily. These methods have already been employed extensively for studying variation in many languages.

Shadowing and consonantal release

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1978
As reported previously [Porter and Castellanos, J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 61, S91–S92(A) (1977)] subjects shadow (rapidly imitate) a VCV in approximately 225 ms (measured from stimulus closure to response closure). However when subjects produce the CV /ba/ to the same VCV tape, reaction times increase by over 10 ms (measured from stimulus closure to response

Consonantal processes

Abstract This chapter provides an overview of a range of phonological processes involving consonants. Bantu languages as a group are exceedingly rich in such processes, including palatalization, velarization, numerous kinds of long-distance consonant harmony, as well as dissimilation. The chapter explores a sampling of these phenomena,
