Expanding my survey in Yun (2012), I suggest some new typological generalizations.\u00a0First, when the edge consonant is a stop, a vowel is most likely to be epenthesized after the stop. If not, the edge stop deletes, while the non-edge stop does not \u00a0(e.g.,\u00a0<strong>g<\/strong>dansk\u00a0(Polish) &rarr;\u00a0[<strong>g?<\/strong>d\u00e6nsk] (English; Yun 2012), \u0091compac<strong>t<\/strong>\u0092 &rarr;\u00a0[kh?mp?k<strong>th?<\/strong>] (Korean; Yun 2012), \u0091blanket\u0092 &rarr;\u00a0[l?nketti] (Finnish; Karttunen 1977), \u0091compact\u0092 &rarr;\u00a0[kompak] (Indonesian; Yun 2012)).\u00a0Second, when the edge consonant is a sonorant, a vowel is epenthesized before the sonorant. (e.g.,\u00a0<strong>l<\/strong>bovskij\u00a0(Russian) &rarr;\u00a0[<strong>yl<\/strong>bovskij]\u00a0(Kirghiz; Gouskova 2003),\u00a0rub<strong>l<\/strong>\u0092\u00a0(Russian) &rarr;\u00a0[rub<strong>?l<\/strong>] (Kirghiz; Yun 2012)). While vowel-adjacent sonorants frequently delete, word-edge sonorants do not delete; even in a language where deletion can be a repair strategy, word-edge sonorants undergo epenthesis rather than deletion (e.g., \u0091Swaziland\u0092 &rarr;\u00a0[suasilaan] vs. \u0091Seattle\u0092 &rarr;\u00a0[siiaatul] (Inuktitut; Pollard 2008)). In addition, I will report several interesting asymmetries concerning positions, source languages, places of articulation, and voicing in stop adaptations, which cannot be explained by standard phonological constraints. Based on the typology, I will argue that acoustic cues, such as stop release bursts and sonorant-internal cues, play a crucial role in consonant cluster adaptation and formulate them as phonetically-based faithfulness constraints. And it will be shown that interactions between \u00a0fixed rankings of the phonetically-based constraints (based on the P-map hypothesis (Steriade 2001\/2008)) and markedness constraints successfully account for the comprehensive cross-linguistic patterns of the nonnative cluster repairs.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Date: Monday, Nov. 26 Time: 5pm Location: 32D-831 Presenter: Suyeon Yun (MIT) Title: The Role of Acoustic Cues in Consonant Cluster Adaptation In this talk I will argue that cross-linguistic asymmetries in nonnative cluster repairs - namely vowel epenthesis and consonant deletion - result from perceptual similarity between the clusters and their repaired forms.
