bdif or lbif), and their preferences reflected statistical knowledge alone. In contrast, readers were able to differentiate only those structures similar to attested English onsets from dissimilar structures (i.e., bnif vs. Hearers differentiated all three types of onsets (e.g., bnif, bdif, and lbif), and their behavior implicated both grammatical and statistical constraints. However, the phonotactic generalizations of hearers and readers differ on their scope and source. Results suggest that both hearers and readers are sensitive to the phonotactics of unattested onsets. Five experiments compare phonological lexical decision responses to nonwords, including unattested onsets, through either aural or visual presentation. Of interest is whether these grammatical preferences constrain the recognition of auditory and printed words by speakers of English-a language in which such onsets are unattested. Cross-linguistic research suggests that onsets of rising sonority are preferred to sonority plateaus, which, in turn, are preferred to sonority falls (e.g., bnif bdif lbif).

We show that 1) the statistics of Polish contradict the Sonority Sequencing Principle (SSP), favouring sonority plateaus, 2) models that succeeded in the other languages do not predict SSP preferences for Polish, and 3) children nonetheless exhibit sensitivity to the SSP, favouring onset clusters with larger sonority rises. 21ĥ.3 Effects of Morpheme Boundaries and Appendices. 17Ĥ.2 Treatment of Problematic Sequences.

3Ģ.2 Exceptions to the Sonority Sequencing Principle. Luckily I feel parents have more and more knowledge but still some parents freak out when they open up their little ones diaper in that first week. Reviewing the proposals for constraint sets that model the effect of the Sonority Sequencing Principle in Optimality Theory, I conclude that the unequal treatment of these sonority plateaus is best accounted for by a universally fixed ranking between constraints on the sonority of single positions in the syllable. This type allows sonority plateaus of obstruents but disallows sonority plateaus of sonorants, even though these coda type violate the principle equally. However, a language type emerges that does not follow from the Sonority Sequencing Principle. I use this typology to demonstrate that violations of the Sonority Sequencing Principle do not occur randomly, but rather, according to an implicational relationship where the presence of violations in codas implies the presence of compliant codas. I classify these languages according to the types of clusters they allow. In this study, I examine the phonotactics of 178 languages in order to find the distribution of word-final biconsonantal clusters that violate this principle. of a sonority fall/plateau (i.e., /s/+stops).

However, this principle does not hold for all syllables in all languages. Syllable structure across languages appears to be governed by a Sonority Sequencing Principle that states that sonority must fall in syllable codas.
