A Comparison of Theoretical and Human Syllabification

open access: yesLanguage and Speech, 2001
A review of phonological syllabification theory reveals considerable controversy, with a number of conflicting theories put forward to explain this process. In this study the performance of five, French specific, syllabification procedures were compared and contrasted both against each other, using lexical analysis, and against human syllable boundary ...

Cyclic syllabification in Mongolian

open access: yesNatural Language and Linguistic Theory, 1995
Mongolian is a language with a rich suffix-based morphology. Underlying forms can contain long consonant strings into which schwa vowels must be epenthesized in order to create well-formed syllables. Syllabification (including epenthesis) is governed by universal principles (the sonority law, maximality, and directionality) and a few language specific ...

A parameter of syllabification

open access: yes, 1988
In this article, it is shown that the the direction of syllabification is parametrized. In one dialect it can be from-right-to left, in another from left-t-right,

open access: yesExpert Systems With Applications, 2013
The syllabification of Spanish's words follows a few basic rules, but the syllabification of some words deviates from the general rules according to a number of factors described in this paper.

A Comparison of Data-Driven Automatic Syllabification Methods

open access: yesLecture Notes in Computer Science, 2009
Although automatic syllabification is an important component in several natural language tasks, little has been done to compare the results of data-driven methods on a wide range of languages.

An Improved Syllabification for a Better Malay Language Text-to-Speech Synthesis (TTS) [PDF]

open access: yesProcedia Computer Science, 2015
Text-to-speech (TTS) is an important component of robots, humanoids and Internet of Things as a mean of human computer interaction. One of the main components of TTS is text processing that functions as the producer of syllabic speech units to be used in

Positional factors in syllabification

Acta Linguistica Academica, 2020
AbstractFrom the perspective of standard generative phonological theory, syllable structure is not recorded in the lexicon but it is obtained by means of a syllabification algorithm based on a series of principles. In a given language, the algorithm should parse obstruent+liquid clusters as tautosyllabic both in word-initial and word-internal positions.

A Parallel Approach to Syllabification

2005
In this paper we propose a parallel manner of syllabification introducing some parallel extensions of insertion grammars. We use this grammars in an application to Romanian language syllabification.

The Syllabification of Vocoids

2002
Like the other Berber dialects, Tashlhiyt has an underlying distinction between the high vowels /i, u/ and the semivowels /y, w/. In § 7.1 we examine in detail how hiatus is avoided in vocoid sequences which do not contain underlying semivowels. The rest of the chapter deals with the phonology of the underlying semivowels. In § 7.2 we show the need for
