Timing lag matters in native speakers' perception of Georgian stop sequences This study tests the hypothesis that timing lag is part of phonological knowledge, investigating Georgian speakers’ perceptual recoverability of C1 consonantal gestures in stop-stop sequences. We hypo...

In languages like #Georgian, words can begin with complex C1C2 stop-stop sequences (gd, bg). Do their speakers rely on the timing of the 2 consonants to accurately recover C1? Results suggest timing lag is in #phonological grammar. #LabPhon #openaccess @efl-upcite.bsky.social doi.org/10.16995/lab...

Experimental priming of phonological variant identification In conversational speech, it has been observed that speakers tend to reuse the variant that they have recently used. This recency effect, also called 'persistence' or 'repetitiveness', has often been ...

Speakers often reuse the variant they've recently used in conversational speech. Does #priming drive this repetitiveness? A study on English ING demonstrates clear #phonological variant priming—but the effect decays rapidly, after only 1 intervening word. #openaccess #LabPhon doi.org/10.16995/lab...

Morphological effects in speech reduction are speaker specific and may partly originate from the words’ most frequent phonological context Recently, a number of studies have investigated whether the morphological status of a segment (e.g., whether a segment is part of a stem, a noun suffix, or verb suffix) affects its pronunciation. Most...

Are morphological effects on phonetic #reduction byproducts of phonological context? Patterns of reduction by #Dutch final /ən/ show that some, not all, differences across #morphological categories can be explained by words' typical #phonological context. doi.org/10.16995/lab... #openaccess #LabPhon

Check out our new paper on #phonological treatments for #anomia in #aphasia. Lots of good data to support phonological treatment but more work needed for maximizing treatment generalization, expanding outcome measures, and assessing treatment ingredients for patient matching.

Anyone else with #phonological #LD have their brain call up the wrong word, and it just suddenly hits you as you’re lying in bed?

I said #Canada has a world-renowned assassin program. WRONG. We have a world-renowned SNIPER program. 🤦🏼‍♀️

... and the #phonological word form and #semantic information that it corresponds to. To date, there is no established efficient way of improving lexical representations."

Is it really true that we have no established way of improving lexical representations?

Most models of #word recognition assume the input is faithful to #phonological specifications in the #lexicon, but it's not always the case. Results from #lenition in #Mawng & #Iwaidja explore how recognition occurs in such scenarios. @bjbaker.bsky.social #LabPhon #openaccess doi.org/10.16995/lab...
