  • The Semantics of Gender in Mayali: Partially Parallel Systems and Formal Implementation

  • Nicholas Evans, Dunstan Brown, Greville G. Corbett
  • Journal:
    Language / Volume 78 / Issue 1 / March 2002
    Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    19 February 2026, pp. 111-155

  • Mayali has four genders and five morphological classes, with formal identity between the gender prefixes and four of the morphological class prefixes. Gender and morphological class are assigned according to different but largely overlapping semantic principles. We analyze these partially overlapping systems within the network morphology framework; an implemented model demonstrates that the analysis gives the correct forms for the majority of nouns in a basic lexicon, and further extends to understanding assignment in the avoidance register. Our account depends on recognizing two different types of default: normal case default, the expected outcome in a given domain, and exceptional case default, the last resort short of full lexical specification.

  • Phonetic Knowledge

  • John Kingston, Randy L. Diehl
  • Journal:
    Language / Volume 70 / Issue 3 / September 1994
    Published online by Cambridge University Press:
    19 February 2026, pp. 419-454

  • This paper argues that the phonetic interpretation of phonological representations may be controlled as well as automatic, because contextual variation in the realization of distinctive feature values is a flexible and adaptive response to variation in the demands on the production or perception of these values between contexts. The principal evidence presented in support of this argument is that the variation in the phonetic realization of speech sounds between contexts or languages involves reorganization of articulations into distinct phonetic categories. Extensive evidence of such reorganization in the realization of the feature [voice] is presented.
