Gregg, Alvin L. – 1973
The justification for the Chomsky-Halle Auxiliary Reduction Rule III, called Pretonic Stress Placement (PSP), is questioned from the point of view of the native speaker. The similarity of the PSP and the Main Stress Rule (MSR) is examined through the application of these rules to polysyllabic monomorphemic and polymorphemic words. This analysis is…

Anderson, Shannon L. – French Review, 1975
Examines the similarity of clitic to other syntactic relationships, such as modifier plus noun, and demonstrates that the consistency of linking in each case may reflect a syntactic unity justifying obligatory liaison. (MSE)

Hirst, D. J. – Linguistics, 1974
A coherent theory of intonation in relation to syntax has not yet been formulated, partly because there is no satisfactory theory of context within a transformational generative grammar, and partly because intonation studies have been concerned with phonetic descriptions of intonation contours. This article calls for an intonation theory. (CK)

Gussmann, Edmund – Studia Anglica Posnaniensia, 1973
It is asserted that the treatment of intonation within the framework of generative grammar has not shown whether surface syntactic structure is sufficient for formulation of phonological rules. An attempt is made to demonstrate that within English phonology reference to deep structure is necessary. (Available from: See FL 508 214). (RM)

McNeill, David – 1968
This chapter, to be included in "Carmichael's Manual of Child Psychology," edited by P.A. Mussen, deals with the connection between the acquisition of language and the growth of intellect, and the connection between both of these and the process of maturation. The author feels that various theories of development cannot account for the child's…

Moyne, J. A. – 1967
At present a computer system cannot be constructed for handling the totality of a natural language in any significant way. It is, however, possible to construct a system for communication in a narrow field of discourse. A working model for a specialized discourse based on a recognition grammar is discussed. Some properties of the recognition…

Schachter, Paul; Fromkin, Victoria – 1968
In this preliminary report the authors compare a part of the phonological systems of Akuapem, Asante, and Fante--the major dialects of Akan. The comparison reveals the features common to all three dialects as well as the features which distinguish the dialects from one another. The description of the phonological systems of these dialects is…

Leben, William R. – 1970
This paper attempts to describe various details of the tonal system of Hausa within the framework of generative phonology. Aspects of tone in Hausa are discussed under the following headings: low tone raising, low-high rule, falling tones and the evaluation measure, tone deletion, and derived nouns and adjectives. Where specific proposals are…
