Acoustic testing for phonologization

Abstarct

Examination of phonetic data can show when phonologization has or has not occurred. Under the general Economy assumption of generative linguistics, this is important for theoretical phonology, since only cases where it has occurred require a phonological account. A modular view of phonetics and phonology is assumed, as it is clearly consistent with generative theory. A procedure for acoustic phonetic testing for phonologization is illustrated using data from one speaker of Palestinian Arabic and one speaker of Stát'imcets Salish. The testing can confirm phonological accounts or cause their revision. How it can cause revision is illustrated with the Stát'imcets data: the speaker's retraction harmony affects a rightward vowel, which is unexpected from standard descriptions of the harmony in that language. The testing can also identify cases of phonetics-within-language. This is illustrated with the St'at'imcets speaker's schwa lowering.

Résumé

Résumé

L’étude de données phonétiques peut montrer quand la phonologisation a eu lieu. Dans l’hypothèse générale de l’Économie de la linguistique générative, cela est important pour la phonologie théorique puisqu’une explication phonologique s’avère nécessaire seulement dans les cas où il y a eu phonologisation,. Un point de vue modulaire de la phonétique et de la phonologie est supposé, car il est clairement cohérent avec la théorie générative. Une procédure de tests phonétiques acoustiques pour identifier la phonologisation est illustrée par l’utilisation de données d’une lo-cutrice d’arabe palestinien et d’un locuteur de st’át’imcets salish. Les tests peuvent confirmer les explications phonologiques, ou entraîner leur révision. La façon dont ils peuvent entraîner la révision est illustrée par les données de st’át’imcets : pour le locuteur, l’harmonie de rétraction affecte la voyelle de droite, ce qui est inattendu d’après les descriptions standard de l’harmonie dans cette langue. Les tests peuvent également identifier les cas de phonétique au niveau de la langue, ce qui est illustré par l’abaissement du schwa pour le locuteur de st’át’imcets.
