Laboratory Phonology is a term used for the scientific study of the units of spoken language, their organization, their grammatical function, and their role in speech production and perception. It represents the general shift towards experimental and quantitative approaches to the study of language across the discipline of linguistics and has emerged as a dominant approach to the study of sound systems since the 1990s. Course participants will develop a perspective on how research in laboratory phonology has shaped our understanding of phonological theory and of the relationship of phonological theory to empirical phonetic data.
Portfolio: experimental work, project reports (paper + poster) (graded).
Registration for exam by July 10, 2020.
