Chevrier, Natacha. "Analyse de la phonologie du bribri (chibcha) dans une perspective typologique : nasalité et géminée modulée". Thesis, Lyon, 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017LYSE2033/document.
Bribri is a Chibchan language spoken in Costa Rica (Central America). Chibchan languages form the main family of the Intermediate Area (Constenla 1991), which links Mesoamerica to the Amazonian and the Andean regions. All of them are endangered and are still under described.This dissertation provides an analysis of Bribri phonology (Schlabach 1974; Wilson 1974; Constenla 1981; Jara 2004) problematized according to its typological characteristics:(i) The nasal system: Bribri is among the few languages in the world to lack distinctive nasal consonants. The nasal consonants present in the output result from nasal harmony (Cohn 1993; Walker 1998, 2001) and hypervoicing through velopharyngeal opening (Iverson & Salmons 1996; Solé 2009). While the first process has been partially described for Bribri (Wilson 1970; Constenla 1982, 1985; Tohsaku 1987), the second has not been individuated in the language.(ii) The consonant /tk/: the consonant /tk/ is a distinctive unit which combines two places of articulation. Contrary to what has been previously described (Lehmann 1920; Schlabach 1974; Wilson 1974; Constenla 1981; Jara 2004), it is not a doubly articulated consonant. I propose to analyse it as a contour geminate consonant (based on the concept of contour segment, Sagey 1990).Following Ohala’s pioneering work (1975, 1981, 1983), this work is based on the assumption that phonological structures must be explained by phonetic constraints. More specifically, I use the Articulatory Phonology frame (Browman & Goldstein 1986, 1989). The analysis is based on acoustic data collected among two Bribri communities, between 2012 and 2014 (Bajo Coen - Coroma and Amubre).Along the typological and phonetic approach, I have adopted a dialectal and diachronical point of view to better capture the phonological system of the language

Vocalic nasalisation in Portuguese has been the subject of numerous studies, especially regarding (i) the status of nasal vowels: are they phonological nasal vowels (/Ṽ/) or complex syllable rhymes (/VN/ or /VV/)? And (ii) the changes responsible for the convergence of the Latin endings -ANE, -ONE, ANU, UDINE, -ANT and -UNT into the nasal diphthong -ão.We proceed with a critical analysis of the studies on this language’s syllable structure and nasal vowels to propose a new synchronic analysis of it, based on the “Strict CV” model of Government Phonology, where hierarchical constituents’ structures are replaced by lateral relations between positions. Our synchronic analysis will be based on three aspects: (i) on historical data, diachronic changes providing information on the conditions required for forming a nasal nucleus; (ii) on acoustic phonetic data, assuming that phonetic duration can be a correlate to nasal nuclei phonological complexity; (iii) on dialectal variation data.Lastly, in the diachronic part of this thesis, we demonstrate how the model we propose helps to explain the phonetic changes that either led to the creation of modern Portuguese nasal nuclei or prevented it

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study focuses on nasal strengthening and nasal assimilation processes in Tshivenda. Two phonological models are applied in order to present credible descriptions and explanations of these phenomena. After having described the core components of, respectively, the classical Transformational Generative (TG) model of Chomsky & Halle (1968), and the more contemporary feature Geometry (FG) model, analyses of the phenomena are presented. It appears as if the TG model can handle the idiosyncrasies of the language more elegantly, with a sustained high level of credibility. The FG model is unable to render the same results.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie studie fokus op nasaalversterking en nasaalassimilasie in Tshivenda. Twee fonologiese modelle word aangewend om hierdie verskynsels te beskryf en te verklaar. Die klassieke versie van liniêre fonologie, die sogenaamde SPE model van Chomsky en Halle (1968) is eerste aan die orde gestel. Daar is gevind dat dit tot In groot mate daarin slaag om die onderskeie prosesse te verklaar. Nadat die kernkomponente van die sogenaamde FG model verduidelik is, is hierdie modelook toegepas. Verskeie gebreke in die toepassing van hierdie model het na vore gekom. Ten slotte word bevind dat die klassieke TG model die verskynsels meer omvattend kan hanteer as die FG model.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study focuses on the phonological process of Nasal Strengthening in Northern Sotho. It sets out to employ two phonological models to describe the phenomenon in order to determine which model presents the most credible explanation for the phenomenon. The core elements of a classical linear model, the so called SPE model of Transformational Generative (TG) phonology is described and applied to the phenomenon. It is indicated that a number of phonological rules are actually involved in the process as a whole. It is argued that the following rules are in fact involved in the generation of appropriate phonetic outputs: a strengthening rule, a homorganic nasal assimilation rule and a nasal deletion rule. The previously inexplicable /k'/ insertion rule is shown to be nothing more than part of a more general process of glottal stop strengthening. This is indeed a new view with respect to the traditional stance on "vowel strengthening." Although the majority of the sound changes may be accounted for within a TG model, the formalism of the strengthening rule itself unfortunately does not reflect any phonetic explanation for the phenomenon. A second, non-linear, phonological model, i.e. a Feature Geometry model (FG) is described and applied to the same phenomenon. It appears that although the more contemporary FG model presents innovative ideas on the structure of phonological representations and processes, it can not account for the strengthening of voiced fricatives at all. At the most this model seems to be able only to account for voiceless fricatives being strengthened to voiced obstruents. It is clear that none of the models can present a complete and credible account of Nasal Strengthening in Northern Sotho.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie studie focus op die proses van Nasaalversterking in Noord Sotho. Twee fonologiese modelle word gebruik in die analise van die verskynsel ten einde te bepaal welke model die mees geskik is om 'n geloofwaardige verklaring aan te bied. Die hoofelemente van 'n lineere Transformasioneel Generatiewe (TG) model word beskryf en toegepas in Noord Sotho. Daar word aangetoon dat die proses uit 'n verskeidenheid verwante prosesse bestaan en daar word geargumenteer dat die volgende reels almal 'n rol speel: "n verstekingsreel, 'n homorgane assimilasiereel en 'n nasaaldelesiereel. 'n Vorige onverklaarbare Ik.'/ invoegingsreel word geherinterpreteer as 'n glottale stop versterkingsreel wat nuwe verduidelikings bied vir die sg versterking van vokale. Alhoewel die meeste van die klankwisselinge verantwoord kan word binne 'n TG model, bied die format van die versterkingsreel ongelukkig geen fonetiese motivering vir die proses aan me. 'n Tweede model, die sg Kenmerkgeometrie (KG), is vervolgens beskryf en toegepas. Dit het heel gou geblyk dat hierdie model, ten spyte van baie innovasies, nie in staat is om die versterking van sternhebbende frikatiewe te verantwoord nie. Dit kon slegs 'n sinvolle beskrywing van die versterking van stemlose frikatiewe moontlik maak. Uit hierdie studie blyk dit dat nie een van die twee modelle wat aangewend is 'n volledige en geloofwaardige beskrywing van die verskynsel van Nasaalversterking in Noord Sotho kan aanbied nie.

Resumo: Os processos de nasalização em línguas Guarani têm sido objeto de interesse da Fonologia há várias décadas, já tendo sido tratados em diferentes abordagens e modelos teóricos. Apesar disso, nenhuma das interpretações sugeridas encontrou aceitação irrestrita entre os estudiosos dessas línguas. Esta tese aborda os processos de nasalização no Nhandewa-Guarani, a língua falada por uma parcialidade Guarani que habita o Estado de São Paulo e o norte do Estado do Paraná, no Brasil meridional, e pretende contribuir à busca por uma interpretação abrangente e conclusiva desses processos nas mencionadas línguas. Além disso, ao tentar abarcar, com o mesmo aparato explicativo, fenômenos de nasalização de outras línguas da família Tupi-Guarani, como o Tapirapé, pretendo romper o círculo que tem separado a análise de fenômenos das línguas Guarani daquela de outras línguas da mesma família e, ao mesmo tempo, romper a barreira que parece existir para uma aceitação de que fenômenos de harmonização nasal também ocorrem no 'ramo Tupi¿ daquela família lingüística
Abstract: The nasalization process in the Guarani languages has been object of the Phonology interest by several decades. This process has been treated by different approaches and theoretical models. Although, none interpretation proposed was unrestrictedly accepted among the scholars of these languages. This work approaches the nasalization process in the Nhandewa-Guarani, language spoken by the Guarani people living in São Paulo and in the north region of Paraná, Southern Brazil. This work intends to contribute to the quest of a productive and conclusive interpretation for the process in these languages. Furthermore, in attempting to include, with the same explanatory apparatus, the nasalization phenomena of the others languages of the Tupi-Guarani family, such as Tapirapé, I intend to break the circle which has separated the analysis of the phenomena of the Guarani languages from those of the others languages in the same family, and, at same time, to break down the obstacle that seems to exist concerning to the acceptation that nasal harmony phenomena also occurs in the 'Tupi branch¿ of that linguistic family

This study concerns a phonologic and phonetic comparison of chinese, french and american english oral and nasal stop consonants. First of all, we compare the phonologic system in these three languages. As we know, on the phonological level, stops in chinese are contrasted by aspiration : /p, ph, t, th, k, kh/; in french as in american english, they are contrasted by voicing : /p, b, t, d, k, g/. Based on this phonological information, we examine the phonetic differences of stops using vot and nasal differences by observing their nasality on the oscillograms. These observations will lead to some interesting remarks on spontaneous nasalization of chinese vowels. On of the purpose of this study is to help chinese, french et american students, learning one of these three languages as a foreign language, to be aware of the differences between various stops

Resumo: Esta tese tem uma dupla finalidade. Em primeiro lugar, ela se propõe a descrição dos sistemas fonológicos de duas línguas Jê setentrionais bastante próximas entre si: Mebengokre (língua das nações Xikrin e Kayapó) e Apinayé (língua da nação homônima). Em segundo, propõe-se a discutir de maneira critica a própria noção de sistema fonológico, mostrando como certos fatos que nos estudos descritivos são normalmente tratados como "processos fonológicos" divorciados do sistema (pensado às vezes como mero inventário), dizem respeito às oposições constitutivas do sistema fonológico. Para exemplificar estas idéias, nos detemos em certos processos que envolvem nasalidade e vozeamento nestas línguas. Uma das diferenças mais nítidas entre a fonologia do Mebengokre e a do Apinayé diz respeito ao comportamento das consoantes "nasais": no primeiro sistema, as consoantes nasais contrastam claramente com oclusivas sonoras. Em Apinayé, ao contrário, consoantes plenamente nasais e consoantes oclusivas sonoras com contornos nasalizados estão em distribuição complementar. Em um primeiro momento, argumentamos que representar as consoantes de contorno como tendo especificação de [nasal] nos leva a certos constrangimentos (a nasalidade teria, nestes segmentos, comportamento absolutamente "passivo", recuando inclusive diante de [-nasal], e por isso optamos por uma representação na qual a nasalidade pode ser um epifenômeno da implementação do vozeamento soante. Alguns fatos do Apinayé, no entanto, sugerem que, pelo menos os segmentos de coda não podem ser caracterizados simplesmente como "soantes não especificados para nasalidade": um destes fatos é a permanência de uma transição nasal breve entre segmentos orais após o desligamento de uma destas consoantes. Esta tese dá continuidade a algumas das reflexões colocadas por primeira vez em D'Angelis (1998) em relação a outras línguas do tronco Macro-Jê. A discussão sobre a noção de sistema fonológico se inspira no estruturalismo do Círculo Lingüístico de Praga; desenvolvimentos posteriores são pensados sempre à luz das intuições de Trubetzkoy (1939). Entre as reflexões mais recentes em tomo da representação das nasais, levamos em conta aqui principalmente os trabalhos de SteIiade (1993) e Piggott (1992)
Abstract: This thesis has a double purpose. In the first place, it endeavors to describe the phonological systems of two closely related Norther Jê languages: Mebengokre (the language of the Kayapó and Xikrin nations), and Apinayé (the language of the homonymous nation). In the second place, it intends to discuss ritically the notion of phonological system, showing the way in which certain facts that are normally treated in descriptive studies as "phonological processes", divorced from the system (which is often thought of as a mere inventory) , are directly relevant to the oppositions that constitute the phonological system. To exemplify these ideas, we devote our attention to certain processes that involve nasality and voicing in these two languages. Une of the clearest differences between the phonology of Mebengokre and Apinayé regards the behavior of so-called "nasal" consonants: in the first system, nasal consonants clearly contrast with voiced stops. In Apinayé, on the other hand, fully nasal consonants and voiced stops with nasalized contours are in complementary distribution. We argue initially that to represent the contour segments as being specified for the feature [nasal] leads us to an untenable situation: nasality would exhibit, in these segments, a completely passive behavior, retreating even next to [-nasal]; for this reason we opt for a representation in which. nasality could be thought of as an epiphenomenon of the implementation of sonorant voicing. Some facts of the Apinayé language nevertheless suggest that at least coda segments cannot be characterized simply as "sonorants unspecified for nasality": one of these facts is the permanence of a brief nasal transition between oral segments after the delinking of one of these coda consonants. This thesis takes up some ofthe points initially raised by D'Angelis (1998) in relation to other languages in the Macro-Jê stock. The discussion about the notion of phonological system is mainly inspired in the structuralist paradigm of the Prague Linguistic Circle; later developments are always put thought in the light ofTrubetzkoy's (1939) intuitions. Among the more recent reflections regarding the representation of nasals, we here take into account mainly the works of Steriade (1993) and Piggott (1992)

Resumo: O presente trabalho trata das possibilidades e dos limites de alguns dos mais difundidos modelos fonológicos correntes (a saber, fonologias não-lineares baseadas em traços autossegmentalizados e hierarquicamente relacionados) e da fronteira onde hoje se discutem os destinos da teoria fonológica e se experimenta a construção de modelos baseados em gestos, perseguidores de um arcabouço dinâmico para o modelamento teórico do(s) componente(s) fonético-fonológico das línguas. Para tanto, exploram-se os limites da representação autossegmental e das geometrias de traços no tratamento de fatos atestados no Kaingang, uma língua indígena da família Jê, e que também têm sido relatados, em maior ou menor extensão, em outras línguas brasileiras filiadas ao tronco Macro-Jê. ...

Abstract: The present thesis deals with the possibilities and limits of some of the most widespread current phonological models (i.e. non-linear phonologies based on autosegmentalization and hierarchically related features) and explores the frontiers of phonological theory, reflecting on its destiny and investigating new approaches such as the use of gesture dynamics for the theoretical modelling of the phonetic-phonological componentes) of languages. To this end, the limits of the autosegmental representations and those of the feature geometries are explored on the treating of facts from Kaingang, an indigenous language of the Je family; similar processes have also been reported to some extent in other Brazilian languages of the Macro-Je stock. ...

This thesis concerns Maba, a Nilo-Saharan language from the Maban group, spoken by some 300,000 speakers in Eastern Chad. The language has been very little studied up to now, and my aim in this thesis has been to research and describe its phonological and morphological characteristics.I begin by describing the phoneme inventory and the rules governing word formation. This is followed by a consideration of the nominal system, including sections on the noun, the noun determi-nants and the noun phrase. One of the points of special interest in the language is the use of co-verbs. Co-verbs are lexemes which are accompanied either by a nominal morpheme or by a support verb. The thesis continues with a description of the verbal system, including the verb morphology, the TAM sys-tem and modifications in valency. This is followed by a discussion of complex clauses, including com-pletive and adverbial clauses, subordinate clauses, and coordinate and juxtaposed clauses. Then the discussion returns to the co-verbs, examining the frequency of use of the ‘non-finished’ verb form in the discourse. To close the description, we look at other aspects of discourse, showing some topicalisa-tion and focalisation mechanisms, and finishing with reported speech.One of the characteristics of the language which is featured in this thesis is the complexity of number, be it nominal or verbal number. This complexity is a particularity of Nilo-Saharan languages as a whole. Number is marked morphologically, by suffixation, or syntactically, by concord between the noun and its dependants, the noun and the verb or the verb and the object

This study aims, to explain the korean phonological phenomenon in the framework of the government theory. The government phonology tries to seek the universal grammar of the phonology. It attempts to reach the goal by studying the possibilities of pooseesing a small number of universal principles with the parameters. The principal unity which conseitutes the segment isn't the distinctive traits, it is the element. In the theory, it is the element which undertakes to explain all the phonological phenomenons. The reinforcement is represented by the union of the elements and the weekness is represented by the loss of the elements. From the point of wiew of the government pholology, this study has cleard the causes of korean phonological changes (neutralization, glottalization, aspiration, assmilation, lenition, elimination of the cold vowel and palatalization etc. ), otherwise the governmental aspects in korean phonology

The thesis is composed of two parts. The first part is purely factual; it comprises systematic inventories. The second part is the analysis of certain phenomena inventorized in the first part. In the first part, we dress up inventories of consonants, groups of consonants and vowels which can appear at the edge of lexemes, as well as different affixes utilized in nominal and verbal morphology. In the second part, we try to propose a unified analysis of the consonant related phenomena inventorized in the first part within the framework of the plurilinear phonology

The study is expressed in two parts with differents fonctions and dimensions, but it forms an unified whole. The first part, unusual approach in phonology, is an historical work presented on the production since century and half to the question of emphasis in different views. We have to trace the history of an exemplary debate of the operation of the scientific argumentation in the different trends expressed to place the several solutions proposed to the probleme discussed before to develop our own theorisation and our way to represent it.

Allowing within lexical representations the kind of oriented linearity implicit in writing conventions presupposes either a numerical caracterisation, or some arbitrary constituent structure. Such presuppositions can be avoided if primes within morphemes are related to each other solely through "attenance" (unoriented adjacency), a symmetrical, intransitive (and reflexive?) relation. The linear unfolding of speech in time is derived from attenance through syllabification. This derivation, besides attenance, needs an unambiguous starting point to syllabification: the "distinguished segment", which can be thought of as a point where attenance is defined between phonic and non phonic information within a morpheme. Attenance then appears to encode both combinatory idiosyncrasies and the arbitratiness of the sign. The combination of morphemes also procedes through the distinguished segment. Hence suffixes enjoy the status of morphological heads in occitan (and french or english as well). In accordance with a reduced version of x-bar theory, only two operations yield constituents: government and adjunction. A movement transformation further derives the status of syllabe onsets as adjunctions coindexed with nuclei. Geminates too can be described. .

Soubrier, Aude. "L’ikposso uwi : phonologie, grammaire, textes, lexique". Thesis, Lyon 2, 2013. http://www.theses.fr/2013LYO20037/document.
Introduction : This thesis is a phonological and grammatical description of Ikposo Uwi, language of the phylum Niger-Congo and Kwa family. It is spoken in Togo by the people Akposso, about 150 000 people that live in the Région des Plateaux. This language divides itself into six dialects : Logbo, Uma, Uwi, Litimé, Ikponou and Amou-Oblo. The study relies on a corpus composed of (i) 36 narratives, (ii) elicitedsentences from picture books, (iii) the lexicon build on these data, (iv) and elicited sentences, generally in connection with the texts. The language used during work session and for translation has always been French.Phonology et tonology : The segmental phonology of Ikposo Uwi (Chapter 1) is quite simple. There are few syllabic schemes and they are not complex. The main characteristic is vocalic harmony, with a 10 vowel system.Ikposo is a tonal language (Chapter 2). Tones are very important on a lexical level, but they encode grammatical informations too. There are four level tones in the Uwi dialect.Morphologie : Nouns and nominal phrases are studied in Chapter 3. Nominal morphology is not very much developed, on the contrary to the rich verbal morphology, with auxiliaries, person index and aspectual prefixes (Chapter 7). Adpositions are studied in Chapter 4 and pronouns in Chapter 5. The other categories are identified in Chapter 6.Syntaxe : The word order is quite rigid : SVOX. This feature is however evolving, as we can see with the yɔ̄ serial verb construction (Chapter 13) that lead to a SOVX word order in some specific discursive contexts.Chapter 8 presents the different enunciative sentence types as well as non verbal predicates.Chapter 9 describes the transitivity and valency system of the language. Modifications in the argument structure are generally not morphologically marked. The only exception is the grammaticalization of 3rd person singular commitative pronoun fà : it makes a transitive-causative construction out fromverbs usually found in intransitive constructions. Ikposo uses massively serial verb constructions. Syntax and types of Ikposo’s serial verb constructions are studied in Chapter 10.The verb dʊ́‘to be at, to put’ (Chapter 11) is one of the most frequent positional verbs, due to its broad meaning. It is also used a lot as V2 in serial verb constructions : with this function dʊ́ undergoes either a grammaticalization process or a lexicalization process. The verb ká‘to give’ (Chapter 12), as V2 of serial verb constructions, undergoes a grammaticalization process, with a global dative meaning.The verb yɔ̄‘to take’ (Chapter 13) is used in serial verb constructions that tend to modify the word order of the arguments from SVO to SOV in some discursive contexts. yɔ̄introduces the object of the main verb or represents it on the main verb. In the latter case, the grammaticalized verb is prefixed yɔ̄-.Chapter 14 gathers the other frequent verbs that do not have a dedicated chapter. Among them, we find lɛ́‘to be, to be at’ used as a copula, bá‘to come’ and ɣā‘to go’ used as deictic verbs, tʊ̄‘to come from’ that grammaticalizes into a prepositional locution, and bā ‘to exceed’ used in comparative serial verbconstructions. Chapter 15 analyses the complex sentences of Ikposo. Among them, completivesare probably the most interesting. They are from two types : build with nominalized verbal predicates or with the quotative nʊ̄, more generally marker of reported speech.Finally, Chapter 16 shows the information structure of the language. I mostly studied the morphological markers of that structure, but a deeper analysis should show that the structure is more complex that these markers let think
Mendousse, Kevin Paul. "Pour une phonologie de la perception". Paris 4, 2003. http://www.theses.fr/2003PA040091.
The problematic of this thesis stands at the crossroads of two theoretical frameworks: on the one hand, it engages with distinctive feature theory, as elaborated by Jakobson (acoustico-auditory model) and Chomsky and Halle (articulatory system), which was developed out of the notions of opposition and archiphoneme into the concept of markedness; on the other hand, it engages with Sapir's phonetic symbolism, later expanded by Fonàgy into the concept of "phonetic metaphor". Adopting an "analogical" approach - an approach based upon Sapir's symbolism and Fonàgy's metaphor - this investigation aims to test native English speakers' phonological perception of their vocalic system by drawing on their intuitive understanding of language in order to evaluate, unbeknown to them, their subjective representation of this system. Vigorous debate has focused on the structure and cognitive foundation of featural theory as well as on the definition and representation of features themselves. English vowels have been the object of extensive investigation in the literature but, to date, research on the subject has proved inconclusive. Between acoustico-motor phonetics, phonological theory and auditory reality, diverse anomalies abound. Following Trubetzkoy's advice that the "linguistic unconscious" should serve as a guide through the meanders of phonology, this study seeks to give "voice" to the unconscious by exploiting its nai͏̈ve synesthetic relationships with the sounds of language. By incorporating the psycho-neurophysiological network of intersensory connections within the paradigm of distinctive features, this thesis endeavours to bridge gaps between the fields of phonetics, phonology and psycholinguistics in order to uncover the structure of our phonological unconscious

In spite of the appearance of the studies concerning the dialects of yaman in an early period, the arabic spoken in gayl habban has never been studied. Neverthless, it possesses linguistics characteristics very important and very special, such as the pronounciation of the phomen 1 wich corresponds to what was descriped by the arab grammarians concerning the pronounciation of the in classical arabic, as well as the presence and the absance of the hamzah which charatarise some arabic dialects of the preislam period. This thesis is consecrated to study the arabic spoken in gayl habban in the point of view phonological and morphological. The syntax is not neglicted, but the answer is found during the analysis morphological because the syntax and the morphology are tow adherent fields in linguistics. This thesis es divided in two pats : - in the first, is studied the phomens of the studied dialect. I employed them in minimal pairs in order to prove their phonological identity. I studiad the structure of the syl- lable as well as the stress in this part. -the second part is consecrated to the morphological study in the arabic of gayl habban. So i studied the verb, the noun and the other elements of centence as well as their role in the speech
Gomez-Imbert, Elsa. "Morphologie et phonologie barasana : approche non-linéaire". Paris 8, 1997. http://www.theses.fr/1997PA081323.
The barasana are a small group of some five hundred people who live in colombian territory in the nord-west amazonon, on the piraparana river. The barasana language belongs to the eastern branch of the tukanoan linguistic family. This work presents in detail the morphology and phonology of the two word classes, noun and verb, and proposes derivations of these words into the model of lexical phonology. Three main phonological aspects receive a detailed treatment : the pitch accent system, the nasal harmony and the moraic harmony. The thesis has five chapters. Chapter 1 "preliminaries" introduces the general characteristics of both the group and the language, the theoretical framework and a synthesis of the results. Chapters 2 "nominal morphology" and 3 "verbal morphology" begin with a morphological description followed by the derivation of nominal and verbal words into the lexical phonology model; lexical and postlexical rules are introduced in an ordered manner. Chapter 4 "the pitch accent" argues the interpretation of tones as a pitch accent system. Chapter 5 "nasality and feature geometry" examines the relation between the feature [nasal] and the other phonological features, and chooses amongst different proposals of feature geometry on the base of the observed assimilation processes
Ndao, Dame. "Phonologie, morphologie et structures syntaxiques du pepel". Paris, INALCO, 2011. http://www.theses.fr/2011INAL0011.
Pepel, a Niger-Congo language of the Atlantic group, is spoken in the Northwest of Guinea-Bissau and in Casamance (Senegal). It is a minority language with an almost non-existent documentation. The present work is therefore the first description of Pepel, Biombo dialect. At the phonological level, the noteworthy phenomena is the existence of 10 short-vowel phonemes (as opposed to long vowels) wich present a +/- ATR feature but do not trigger vowel harmony. The second part of this work is dedicated to noun morphology (including loan nouns) as well as the morphology of pronouns, nominal determiners, adjectives, numerals, adverbs, prepositions, subordinate conjunctions and interjections. Pepel is a nominal class language with a rich class agreement system. The language’s verbal morphology is rather complex given that its TAM markers’ paradigm is composed of various types of morphemes (affixes, free morphemes and auxiliaries) and a copula. Futhermore, the morphosyntactic status of every identified verbal morpheme as well as its most common value is described. The last part is dedicated to syntax. Having described the various types of noun phrases, the simple utterance structure is presented, followed by the study of the expression of degrees of comparison, as well as the description of the phenomenon of topicalisation and focus, which are likely to modify the canonical structure of the language (SVO). Finally, in the appendix are, a pepel-French lexicon of about two thousand entries and some texts, taken from consersations, transcribed and interlineary glossed

Spoken by less than 20,000 speakers living by the Malian border of Burkina Faso, Dzùùngoo (also called Samogho) is a North West Mande language of the Niger Congo family. This language has not yet been the object of a detailed linguistic description. Thus, based on extensive lexical, textual and audio data recorded in Samogohiri over a period of 20 years, we propose to provide the scientific community a descriptive foundation for the future development of a bilingual Dzùùngoo – French dictionary that should acknowledge the world cultural heritage that this endangered language represents. The initial issues for this work are therefore lexical. The internal structure of the lexeme is outlined in the phonological description where the inventory of phonemes (Chapter 3), the syllabic structure of the word (Chapters 2, 4 & 5) and its tonal structure (Chapter 6) are developed. The morphosyntactic description as such mainly focuses on defining and establishing the different grammatical categories to which every lexical item belongs (Chapter 9). The syntactic organization of the sentence is then considered in the presentation of the different nominal (Chapter 10) and verbal (Chapter 11) operations, as well as different predication structures, non verbal (Chapter 12) and verbal (Chapter 13), marked structures (Chapter 14) and complex structures (Chapter 15). Using a typological and functional approach, this description is an attempt to put Dzùùngoo morphosyntax in the global perspective of mande linguistics
Sang, Yumei. "Questions de phonétique et phonologie du mongol". Sorbonne Paris Cité, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016USPCC101.
This dissertation focuses on the distribution of long vowels (VV) and their phonological status in non-initial syllables and vowel devoicing in Mongolian. Mongolian is a language with vowel quantity. According to Stuart and Holtod (1975), Svantesson et al. (2005) and Karlsson (2005), long vowels only appear in the initial position of the word and the VV sequences in the non-initial syllables are considered as short vowels. This study questions this point of view by considering the historical development of long vowels, and demonstrates that, synchronously, the phonetic vowel length alone is not sufficient to distinguish long vowels from short vowels. This study shows that the opposition between long and short vowels should also be based on the different phonological behaviours of the long and short vowels. Non-initial VV sequences are therefore phonologically long and long vowels have a free distribution. The analysis of vowel devoicing (VD) is based on the framework of the typology of VD (Chitoran and Marsico 2010). Two types of corpus are analysed: target-words (controlled speech) and read texts (continuous speech). This analysis shows that Mongolian is highly sensitive to VD. This study highlights the features of VD, the type and the degree of VD and the relevant parameters determining VD in Mongolian such as vowel quality, voiceless consonant environments, type and position of syllables and morphological structure of the words. It shows that on the one hand Mongolian shares the common features of the typology of VD but on the other hand displays its own characteristics of VD

THIS THESIS PRESENTS A PHONOLOGICAL INTERPRETATION OF THE PARTICULARITIES OF R IN JAPANESE AND KOREAN. THE THESIS PROPOSES THAT, IN BOTH LANGUAGES, THE SPECIAL STATUS OF R CAN BE UNDERSTOOD IN TERMS OF ITS INTERNAL STRUCTURE AS AN UNMARKED, UNDERSPECIFIED SEGMENT. FEATURE GEOMETRY AND THE UNDER-SPECIFICATION THEORY PROVIDE THE THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK OF THIS THESIS. HOWEVER, ITS PERSPECTIVE IS ALSO HISORICAL, COMPARATIVE AND TYPOLOGICAL. PART I DISCUSSES THE VARIOUS PHONETIC AND PHONOLOGICAL PARTICULARITIES OF R IN JAPANESE AND FOCUSSES ON THE FOLLOWING: - THE ORIGIN AND MORPHO-PHONOLOGICAL STATUS OF THE -RV SYLLABLES, WHICH APPEAR IN MANY JAPANESE DERIVATIES, AND THE CORRESPONDANCE BETWEEN -RV lengthENING AND REDUPLICATION. - THE ABSENCE OF R AT THE BEGINNING OF JAPANESE NATIVE INDEPENDANT WORDS. - THE INTERNAL STRUCTURE OF R. - THE ROLE OF R IN THE OLD AND MODERN JAPANESE CONJUGAISON SYSTEM.

This study focuses on the phonological differences between dagaare and french within the framework of french functionalism. Its ultimate purpose is to afford the french teacher better insight into the problems of phonation as could be encountered by the french students of dagaare l1 background. In the first section of the study, separate presentations are made of each of the four major dialects of dagaare, bearing on both segmental and supra-segmental features. It culminates into a synoptic view of the four dialects as a homogenous entity with respect to french, the former being no more than mere varieties of the dame language. While recalling the phonological system of standard french (as spoken in france) in the second section, a commentary is run on reported regional differences in the use of the standard language within france by native speakers. The third section draws a parallel between the phonological and phonetic levels of the two languages - dagaare and french. . .

This work is a contrastive study of french and ding in a phonetico-phonological level. It starts with generalities on bilingualism, on the contribution of linguistics in language teaching (and mainly foreign languagues) and also on the linguistic problems in black africa in the field of linguistic politicies. The work consists essentially in a comparison of phonetic, phonologic and graphic elements of both languages aiming to make clear discrepancies capable to create interferences among ding speakers who are going to learn or have already learned french, as well as similarities from which we can drive teaching methods of french for ding speakers or methods of correction of interferences. The results have been confirmed at some extent by analysis of french errors made by ding pupils. Subsequently, by the end of this work, some correction techniques of the interferences on phonic and graphic levels have been elaborated, that is, techniques that we can apply to other zairean locutors under some precise conditions

This study provides a description and an analysis of the French spoken in Bordeaux and the surrounding communities, based on a corpus of studies following the methodology and the protocol developed within the framework of the Contemporary French Phonology (PFC) Project, developed by Jacques Durand (ERSS, University of Toulouse-Le Mirail), Bernard Laks (MoDyCo, University of Paris X) and Chantal Lyche (University of Oslo and University of Tromsø). Several aspects of the phonology of Bordeaux French are studied, taking into consideration the sociolinguistic diversity of the speakers and the stylistic differences of the linguistic tasks, specifically the Loi de Position for vowels, liaison and schwa. The study detailed here is based on the analysis of audio-recorded interviews of eighteen adults from Bordeaux and the surrounding communities. The participants in this study were interviewed between June and July 2015, according to PFC protocol, and the recordings were transcribed, coded and analyzed by the author, also in accordance with PFC protocol. The speakers were selected in order to represent a balanced diversity in terms of age, sex, level of education, socioeconomic/cultural background, and childhood neighborhood. We observe patterns in terms of the realization of several phonological phenomena. Liaison and schwa are used more in the reading task than in conversation. However, schwa is used the least in the word list. A diachronic analysis reveals that the people from Bordeaux today follow the Loi de Position more than the speakers described in previous research did. We conclude that age is shown to be a statistically significant sociolinguistic factor for this sample of speakers. We also take into account variation in terms of geography, style and chronology. This work contributes to the study of phonological variation in spoken French today

The diachronic dialectology of Iberian Peninsula bringed us to reconceive the discredited theory of linguistic waves and, from that, the most part of concepts in effect in diachronic linguistics. The topics are as follows : Part I : Connections Between Internal and External Linguistics : Chapter 1 : grading and homogeneity of linguistic systems : the concept of first idiom and the denunciation of the concepts of substrata and adstrata ; Chapter 2 : the concept of endolinguistic mechanism ; Chapter 3 : the articulation between internal and external factors : causes of linguistic changes. Part II : Connections Between geopolitics and linguistics : Chapter 1 : the various kinds of epicentres and linguistic waves ; Chapter 2 : the definition of the languages in comparison with other languages, dialects and subdialects in the light of our theory of linguistic waves ; Chapter 3 : how to periodicize an idiom ? Part III : application : indo-european, latin, and especially spanish and portuguese

Le chleuh est un dialecte berbère parlé au Sud et au Sud-Ouest du Maroc. Ce dialecte présente deux phénomènes très rares voire typologiquement uniques. Certains mots peuvent contenir uniquement des obstruantes sourdes (e.g. tsskRftstt " tu l'as séchée ") sans voyelle ou consonne sonore. Des phrases entières peuvent aussi être totalement sourdes (e.g. [tftWtstt tftktstt] " tu l'as roulée (et) tu l'as donnée "). Ce dialecte contient aussi différentes sortes de géminées : lexicales, issues d'une assimilation complète ou issues d'une concaténation de deux consonnes identiques. Les géminées tautomorphémiques sont attestées aussi bien en position intervocalique qu'initiale et finale absolues. Elles peuvent être précédées ou suivies d'une ou de plusieurs consonnes.
La thèse est composée de deux parties. La première partie est une analyse phonétique et phonologique des consonnes géminées. Entre autres objectifs de cette partie est de déterminer si l'opposition simple/géminée est une opposition de qualité ou de quantité ou des deux. Différents types d'analyses (acoustique, aérodynamique, fibroscopique, photoélectroglottographique et phonologique) ont été réunis. Ils montrent que la distinction entre les consonnes simples et les géminées est essentiellement une distinction de structure temporelle même pour les occlusives sourdes en position initiale absolue. Les autres corrélats moins fiables de cette opposition peuvent être considérés comme secondaires. La théorie syllabique doit donc permettre des distinctions de longueur qui ne reviennent pas uniquement à une jonction entre deux syllabes. La deuxième partie de cette thèse traite d'un phénomène devenu un des exemples les plus célèbres en phonologie depuis la publication des travaux de Dell et Elmedlaoui sur la structure syllabique en chleuh (1985, 1988, 2002). Le chleuh, selon la thèse initiée par ces deux auteurs et adoptée entre autres par Prince & Smolensky (1993), permet à toute consonne d'occuper le noyau de la syllabe, même une occlusive sourde. Cette analyse a été vivement débattue. Un seul point d'accord est sorti de ce débat : la connaissance des phénomènes à partir des transcriptions tranditionnelles est insuffisante et il faut avoir recours à des expériences phonétiques plus poussées pour résourde les problèmes. Ce sont les résultats de telles expériences que j'ai présentés dans ma thèse. La question à laquelle j'ai tenté de répondre à partir d'un ensemble d'analyses acoustiques, fibroscopiques, photoélectroglottographiques et phonologiques est la suivante : " En chleuh, schwa est-il un segment au niveau des représentations phonétiques ? " Un aspect de cette question est le suivant : si, comme le soutiennent Dell et Elmedlaoui, schwa est simplement un aspect de la réalisation d'une consonne voisine, et non un segment, on ne doit pas trouver de schwa, donc du voisement ou de geste vocalique, dans un mot composé de consonnes sourdes. On ne voit pas quel mécanisme phonétique introduirait du voisement dans un contexte dépourvu de segments [+voisé]. Si par contre ces mots contiennent des schwas on doit en déduire que les représentations phonétiques du chleuh comportent au moins quatre vocoïdes : les réalisations de /a, i, u/ et en plus un segment schwa apte à occuper le noyau de la syllabe. Les résultats montrent d'une manière claire qu'en berbère chleuh, il n'y a aucune trace d'une voyelle sous-jacente dans les mots composés entièrement d'obstruantes sourdes. Les traces trouvées principalement dans certaines réalisations d'un locuteur d'Agadir (sur 7 locuteurs) sont dues à l'influence de l'arabe sur le parler des locuteurs bilingues arabe-berbère. La théorie syllabique doit permettre des syllabes sans vocoïdes. Cette thèse présente aussi une contribution nouvelle à l'étude du comportement laryngé en appliquant pour la première fois les techniques de fibroscopie et de photoélectroglottographie à l'étude du berbère. Vu ses caractéristiques linguistiques, le berbère permet d'approfondir nos connaissances sur les mécanismes du contrôle laryngien et sur la nature des rapports temporels entre les gestes glottaux et supraglottaux. Les études précédentes se limitaient pour l'essentiel à l'étude des segments simples (principalement les occlusives aspirées) dans certaines langues germaniques, plus le japonais. Parmi les aspects analysés dans cette thèse, le mécanisme du contrôle de l'aspiration des occlusives simples et géminées, l'aspiration quelque peu atypique dans les groupes initiaux fricative-occlusive et la configuration glottale pendant la tenue des consonnes glottales, pharyngales et uvulaires (précédemment à peine étudiée). L'aspect de ce travail qui peut avoir des ramifications importantes est celui concernant les mots sourds. De telles données n'ont en effet jamais été étudiées auparavant. La modélisation des gestes laryngés pendant la tenue de ces formes entièrement dévoisées a été présentée fondamentalement en adoptant le modèle " cible-et-interpolation " (Pierrehumbert & Beckman, Keating). Les résultats montrent d'une manière quelque peu inattendue que la glotte ne reste pas simplement ouverte durant ces énoncés sourds, mais que l'aperture glottale est sans cesse modulée et peut être systématiquement mise en relation avec celle des segments individuels présents dans la suite sourde. On pourrait en effet s'attendre à ce que dans de tels énoncés, le geste " de dévoisement " soit considéré comme superflu par le locuteur et simplement éliminé. Or il n'en est rien. Ces résultats montrent d'une manière éclatante à quel point les gestes glottaux et les gestes supraglottaux sont liés.
Gao, Yang. "Description de la langue Menya : phonologie et syntaxe". Paris, EHESS, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015EHES0181.
This thesis presents a comprehensive description of a dialect of Western Menya ('mqpe) spoken in the Dar. Rtse. Mdo (Kangding) county, Sichuan Province, China. Menya has 8 vocalic phonemes and 46 consonantal phonemes. The contrast between the non-RTR vowels and RTR vowels is attested. Vowel harmony of these two sorts of vowels is manifested in a fairly common way that can affect not only the lexical level, but also the morphological level. As for the consonant system, with vowel harmony, the uvulars are analyzed as allophones of the velars. Morphological tonal alternation shows that there are two underlying tones (High and Low) in monosyllabic words, while being neutralized and surfacing as high falling in citation form. Our data also confirm that in polysyllabic words, only the first or the second syllable can receive a high tone. Morphosyntactic-wise, a presentation on nominal and verbal morphology is made in the first place. The Menya language demonstrates a system with several integrative case forms with different functions, such as ergative marking, possessive marking and dative marking. In the verbal system, Menya exhibits two types of vowel alternations : the first type involves orientational prefixes affected by causative prefixes /- and u-, and the mark of third person agent (3A) u-; and the second type the verbal stems with person marking. We also made a preliminary description of sentence patterns including relative clauses, complement clauses, comparative constructions and different sorts of clauses linking
