A restrictive, parsimonious theory of footing in directional Harmonic Serialism
Phonology, 2022 AbstractThis paper develops a theory of footing in Harmonic Serialism (HS; Prince & Smolensky 1993/2004; McCarthy 2000, 2016) where Con contains only directionally evaluated constraints (Eisner 2000, 2002; Lamont 2019, 2022a, 2022b). Directional constraints harmonically order candidates by the location of violations rather than the total number of ...

No Metathesis in Harmonic Serialism
Proceedings of the Annual Meetings on Phonology, 2018 This paper presents a Harmonic Serialism analysis of synchronic metathesis, proposing to eliminate metathesis as an atomic operation, instead analyzing apparent metathesis cases as a result of the sequential application of simpler operations such as copy + deletion or fusion + fission, and not as segment reordering.

Learning Opaque and Transparent Interactions in Harmonic Serialism
Proceedings of the Annual Meetings on Phonology, 2016 This paper presents initial modeling results comparing the relative learnability of four basic types of process interactions: bleeding, feeding, counterfeeding and counterbleeding. The principle finding is that the learning model does not predict an absolute hierarchy of learning difficulty based on the type of process interaction involved.

Metrical Tone Shift and Spread in Harmonic Serialism
Proceedings of the Annual Meetings on Phonology, 2016 This paper proposes a framework for the analysis of bounded tone patterns, where tone shifts or spreads across a small distance. The framework starts from the idea that foot structure drives such tone processes, with foot edges acting as targets for tone association.

John J. McCarthy and Joe Pater (eds.): Harmonic grammar and harmonic serialism.
Norsk Lingvistisk Tidsskrift, 2019 This volume contains chapters that explore and extend advances in formal investigations of grammar that employ violable constraints in the analysis of individual languages, the study of linguistic typology, and the learnability of grammars. Initial investigations in a generative framework that employs violable constraints took place in Optimality ...

The Investigation of Phonological Changes in the Negative Prefix of Kalhori Kurdish Preceding a Glide: a Serial Optimality Theoretic Account [PDF]
مطالعات زبانها و گویشهای غرب ایران, 2022 When the negative prefix of na- is added to Kalhori Kurdish verbal constructions with initial glides, the vowel of the prefix is left intact in certain contexts, and yet in others, undergoes partial or full assimilation of Place features with its ...
