  abstract  = {Alexander I. Falilejevs Edition altwalisischer/altkymrischer Texte bietet eine erstmalige Zu-sammenstellung s{\"a}mtlicher erhaltener Textzeugnisse dieser inselkeltischen Sprache. Sie datieren in die Zeit vor dem Jahr 1000 n.Chr. zur{\"u}ck. Jeder Text ist mit einem Glossar und einem ausf{\"u}hrlichen linguistischen Kommentar versehen. Dieser Kommentar sowie die Einleitung liefern einen kompletten {\"U}berblick {\"u}ber den gegenw{\"a}rtigen Wissensstand auf dem Gebiet des Altwalisischen. Der systematische Teil des Buches ordnet die linguistischen Formen (Phono-logie, Morphologie, Syntax) zu einem Abriß der altwalisischen Grammatik. Yves Le Berres {\"U}bersetzung der russischen Vorlage (Древневаллийский язык (Drevnevalliskiy yazyk), Moskau 2002) ins Franz{\"o}sische erm{\"o}glicht der Forschung erstmalig einen Zugang zum Alt-walisischen in einer westeurop{\"a}ischen Sprache. Das Altwalisische ist nicht nur f{\"u}r das Verst{\"a}ndnis der anderen {\"a}lteren inselkeltischen Spra-chen wichtig (Irisch, Bretonisch und Kornisch), sondern auch f{\"u}r die Entstehungsgeschichte des Englischen. Das Altwalisische war die erste Kontaktsprache der Sprecher des sich heraus-bildenden mittelalterlichen Englischen.},

  abstract  = {Die Dissertation untersucht die Entwicklung der prosodischen Struktur von Simplizia und Komposita im Deutschen. Ausgewertet werden langzeitlich erhobene Produktionsdaten von vier monolingualen Kindern im Alter von 12 bis 26 Monaten. Es werden vier Entwicklungsstufen angenommen, in denen jedoch keine einheitlichen Outputs produziert werden. Die Asymmetrien zwischen den verschiedenen W{\"o}rtern werden systematisch auf die Struktur des Zielwortes zur{\"u}ckgef{\"u}hrt. In einer optimalit{\"a}tstheoretischen Analyse wird gezeigt, dass sich die Entwicklungsstufen aus der Umordnung von Constraints ergeben und dass dasselbe Ranking die Variation zwischen den Worttypen zu einer bestimmten Entwicklungsstufe vorhersagt.},

  abstract  = {The present dissertation investigates changes in lingual coarticulation across childhood in German-speaking children from three to nine years of age and adults. Coarticulation refers to the mismatch between the abstract phonological units and their seemingly commingled realization in continuous speech. Being a process at the intersection of phonology and phonetics, addressing its changes across childhood allows for insights in speech motor as well as phonological developments. Because specific predictions for changes in coarticulation across childhood can be derived from existing speech production models, investigating children's coarticulatory patterns can help us model human speech production. While coarticulatory changes may shed light on some of the central questions of speech production development, previous studies on the topic were sparse and presented a puzzling picture of conflicting findings. One of the reasons for this lack is the difficulty in articulatory data acquisition in a young population. Within the research program this dissertation is embedded in, we accepted this challenge and successfully set up the hitherto largest corpus of articulatory data from children using ultrasound tongue imaging. In contrast to earlier studies, a high number of participants in tight age cohorts across a wide age range and a thoroughly controlled set of pseudowords allowed for statistically powerful investigations of a process known as variable and complicated to track. The specific focus of my studies is on lingual vocalic coarticulation as measured in the horizontal position of the highest point of the tongue dorsum. Based on three studies on a) anticipatory coarticulation towards the left, b) carryover coarticulation towards the right side of the utterance, and c) anticipatory coarticulatory extent in repeated versus read aloud speech, I deduct the following main theses: 1. Maturing speech motor control is responsible for some developmental changes in coarticulation. 2. Coarticulation can be modeled as the coproduction of articulatory gestures. 3. The developmental change in coarticulation results from a decrease of vocalic activation width.},

  abstract  = {Drawing on phonology research within the generative linguistics tradition, stochastic methods, and notions from complex systems, we develop a modelling paradigm linking phonological structure, expressed in terms of syllables, to speech movement data acquired with 3D electromagnetic articulography and X-ray microbeam methods. The essential variable in the models is syllable structure. When mapped to discrete coordination topologies, syllabic organization imposes systematic patterns of variability on the temporal dynamics of speech articulation. We simulated these dynamics under different syllabic parses and evaluated simulations against experimental data from Arabic and English, two languages claimed to parse similar strings of segments into different syllabic structures. Model simulations replicated several key experimental results, including the fallibility of past phonetic heuristics for syllable structure, and exposed the range of conditions under which such heuristics remain valid. More importantly, the modelling approach consistently diagnosed syllable structure proving resilient to multiple sources of variability in experimental data including measurement variability, speaker variability, and contextual variability. Prospects for extensions of our modelling paradigm to acoustic data are also discussed.},
