Beyond Prevalence: Understanding the Relationship Between Early Anatomic Factors and the Likelihood for Cleft Speech Characteristics. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Lang Commun Disord
ABSTRACT Purpose This study investigates early anatomic determinants influencing the likelihood of cleft speech characteristics (CSCs) in children with cleft palate with or without lip involvement (CP+/−L). The primary objective was to identify critical anatomic factors within the first year of life that impact the presence of CSCs at Age 3.

Founder effects identify languages of the earliest Americans. [PDF]

open access: yesAm J Biol Anthropol
Abstract The known languages of the Americas comprise nearly half of the world's language families and a wide range of structural types, a level of diversity that required considerable time to develop. This paper proposes a model of settlement and expansion designed to integrate current linguistic analysis with other prehistoric research on the ...

Articulatory-kinematic changes in speech following surgical treatment for oral or oropharyngeal cancer: A systematic review. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Lang Commun Disord
Abstract Background Treatment for oral or oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (O&OSCC) often leads to problems with speech articulation. Articulatory–kinematic data may be especially informative in designing new therapeutic approaches for individuals treated for these tumours.

Palatal Myoclonus (syn. Palatal Tremor) [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Neurology, 2008
Symptomatic palatal tremor is caused by a lesion in the triangle of Guillain and Mollaret and is associated with hypertrophic olivary degeneration that has multiple causes. Essential palatal tremor has no currently demonstrable cause and no accompanying physical or radiological signs. But it is probable that an organic genesis will become apparent.

Perspectives on palatalization

open access: yesGlossa, 2016
In this article we provide a discussion of the definition of palatalization as a ­phonological ­phenomenon, its crosslinguistic variation, phonetic or functional grounding and phonetic (un)naturalness of palatalization, and theoretical approaches to ...

Velar palatalization in Slovenian: Local and long-distance interactions in a derived environment effect

open access: yesGlossa, 2016
Slovenian velar palatalization has been described as a morphologically and lexically restricted, variable derived environment effect. This paper presents a corpus-based study that for the first time also considers synchronic phonological factors. Much of

Palatalization and glide strengthening as competing repair strategies: Evidence from Kirundi

open access: yesGlossa, 2016
Alternations involving place-changing palatalization (e.g. t+j → ʧ in spirit – spiritual) are very common and have been a focus of much generative phonological work since Chomsky & Halle’s (1968) ‘Sound Pattern of English’.

Naturalness bias in palatalization: An experimental study

open access: yesNordlyd: Tromsø University Working Papers on Language & Linguistics, 2016
In the present study, we report on an artificial language learning experiment aiming to test the idea that it is easier to learn palatalization before a front vowel than it is to learn depalatalization in the same context.

Palatalization in Central Bùlì

open access: yesLegon Journal of the Humanities, 2021
Palatalization is a process through which non-palatal consonants acquire palatality, either through a shift in place of articulation from a non-palatal region to the hard palate or through the superimposition of palatal qualities on a non-palatal ...
