The other is progressive where a k following a front vowel or an alveolopalatal is realized with palatal coarticulation. Using acoustic measurements of F2 transitions in VCV sequences, I show that palatal coarticulation interacts with all obstruents and that the place of the constriction determines how F2 transitions from front to back vowels. Further I argue that a GA feature spreading analysis with traditional L\/R edges is insufficient to represent the Crow data. I propose adopting gestural landmarks as a domain to assign GA violations; gestural landmarks provide exactly the appropriate number of alignment positions needed to characterize F2\u0092s transition from high to low through an intervening consonant.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Speaker: Trevor Driscoll (MIT)Title: Crow Palatal Coarticulation as Gradient Feature SpreadingTime: Monday, November 16th, 5pm - 6:30pmAbstract: The literature on Crow phonology describes two palatalization processes; one changes alveolar obstruents to alveolopalatals before front vowels.
