Revised version of a paper, Restrictions on Phonetically-Plausible Rules in Phonology'', presented at the Annual Meeting of the Linguistic Society of America, Atlanta, Georgia, December 28, 1972. (DD)

Argues against Chomsky's conception of deep structure (underlying representation) and surface structure in phonology. (DD)

Two claims essential to Kean's interpretation (EJ 165 107) that Broca's aphasia results in a phonological disorder rather than a syntactic or morphological disorder are disputed. The claim that the plural morpheme is derivational, and the postulation of the notion of the phonological word are shown to have no linguistic motivation. (Author/RD)

Reexamines data concerning the effect a mobile vowel, followed by the zero-ending, has on a stem's stress pattern in Contemporary Standard Russian. Suggests a new representation of the stress patterns of stems with the vowel-zero alternation. (PMJ)

The aim of the present study was to determine whether processing of syntactic word information (lemma) is subserved by the same neural substrate as processing of conceptual or word form information (lexeme). We measured BOLD responses in 14 native speakers of German in three different decision tasks, each focussing specifically on one level of…

Speakers with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) show difficulties in suprasegmental aspects of speech production, or "prosody," those aspects of speech that accompany words and sentences and create what is commonly called "tone of voice." However, little is known about the perception of prosody, or about the specific aspects of…

The vast majority of American-born adults are exposed to written language from a very early age. Most Americans live in a print-based society where letters and words are everywhere! Drive, walk, or bike down any American street and you will see numerous eye-catching billboards, signs, and storefronts. Our towns, cities, neighborhoods, and homes…

This study explores children's development of dual-level phonological processing posited by generative theory for adult language users. Evidence suggesting 6-year-olds' utilization of morphophonemic segments was obtained by asking children to imitate complex words, omit specified portions, and discuss the meaning of the resulting word-parts. The…

This paper contends that neither taxonomic nor generative phonology is a satisfactory basis for contrastive analysis or for teaching Russian pronunciation. A third theory, known as natural phonology, is more useful. (CHK)

In this paper the morphological argument for the conditioning of Sanskrit aspiration and deaspiration is renewed in theoretically current terms, bringing forth new arguments and examining previously undiscussed major weaknesses in the purely phonological (autosegmental) argument. Relevant phonological, morphological, and lexical facts are…

Argues that the generative-phonological view of linguistic competence is a highly speculative theory supported by a limited number of disparate arguments. (Author/AM)
