Temiar Reduplication in One-Level Prosodic Morphology
, 2000 Temiar reduplication is a difficult piece of prosodic morphology. This paper presents the first computational analysis of Temiar reduplication, using the novel finite-state approach of One-Level Prosodic Morphology originally developed by Walther (1999b,

Phonetics in Phonology and Phonology in Phonetics
, 2012 In this paper, I explore the relationships between phonology and phonetics and argue that there are two distinct ways that they interact. A distinction needs to be drawn between the way phonetics affects phonology–phonetics in phonology, and the way phonology affects or drives phonetics–phonology in phonetics.

The Formal Dynamism of Categories: Stops vs. Fricatives, Primitivity vs. Simplicity [PDF]

The Role of Contact in Explaining Linguistic Convergence1
Transactions of the Philological Society, EarlyView.Abstract In this paper, I explore the question of how linguistic convergence emerges and what the role of contact might be. My case study is the spread of headed relative clauses built around wh‐relative markers in the Standard Average European languages.

From Phonological Rules to the Person Case Constraint. Monovalent vs. Bivalent Features in Grammar
Quaderni di Linguistica e Studi Orientali, 2019 In phonology, segmental content has been predominantly represented in terms of binary features. Although binary features may provide an elegant description of some segmental contrasts, it is far from clear that speaker/hearer’s knowledge about segments ...

The acquisition of Sign Language: The impact of phonetic complexity on phonology [PDF]
, 2010 Research into the effect of phonetic complexity on phonological acquisition has a long history in spoken languages. This paper considers the effect of phonetics on phonological development in a signed language. We report on an experiment in which nonword-
