Autosegmental phonology is the name of a framework of phonological analysis proposed by John Goldsmith in his PhD thesis in 1976 at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology MIT . As a theory of phonological representation, autosegmental phonology developed a formal account of ideas that had been sketched in earlier work by several linguists, notably Bernard Bloch 1948 , Charles Hockett 1955 and J. R. Firth 1948 . On such a view, phonological representations consist of more than one Distinctive feature linear sequence of segments each linear sequence constitutes a separate tier. The co registration of elements or autosegments on one tier with those on another is represented by association lines.

Refimprove date December 2009 Context date October 2009 Government phonology GP is a theoretical framework of linguistics and more specifically of phonology . The framework aims to provide a non arbitrary account for phonological phenomena by replacing the rule component of phonology with a restricted set of universal principles and parameters. As in Noam Chomsky s principles and parameters approach to syntax , the differences in phonological systems across languages are captured through different combinations of parametric settings. In GP, phonological representations consist of zero e.g. vowel zero in French or more combinations of elements. These elements are the primitives of the theory and are deemed to be universally present in all human phonological systems. They are assumed to correspond to characteristic acoustic signatures in the signal, or hot features as previously referred to. There are 6 elements believed to be existent across all languages, namely A , I , U , , L and H . They represent backness, frontness, roundness, stopness, voicing nasality and frication aspiration respectively. As in French, it is possible to have empty nuclei, marked , which are subject to the phonological Empty Category Principle ECP . Unlike features, each element is a Valency linguistics monovalent , and potentially interpretable phonological expression. Its actual interpretation depends on what phonological constituent dominates it, and whether it occupies a head or operator position within a phonological expression. Today, whilst Optimality Theory has become the dominant theory in phonology, GP continues to develop. P chtrager, ref P chtrager, M. A. 2006 . The structure of length. PhD Thesis. Vienna Universit t Wien., ref for example, proposes GP 2.0, another version of GP that strives to further reduce the number of elements by capturing manner of articulation with structure.

Articulatory phonology http www.haskins.yale.edu research gestural.html http www.essex.ac.uk speech pubs presents ioa 96 mt post.html is a linguistics linguistic theory originally proposed in 1986 by Catherine Browman http www.haskins.yale.edu staff browman.html of Haskins Laboratories and Louis M. Goldstein http www.yale.edu linguist faculty louis.html of Yale University and Haskins. The theory identifies theoretical discrepancies between phonetics and phonology and aims to unify the two by treating them as low and high dimensional descriptions of a single system. Unification can be achieved by incorporating into a single model the idea that the physical system identified with phonetics constrains the underlying abstract system identified with phonology , making the units of control at the abstract planning level the same as those at the physical level.

see also Register sociolinguistics In linguistics , a register language, also known as a pitch register language, is a language which combines tone linguistics tone and vowel phonation into a single phonology phonological system. Burmese language Burmese and the Chinese dialect Shanghainese are examples. Burmese is often considered a tonal language, but differences in relative pitch are correlated with vowel phonation, so that neither exists independently. There are three such registers in Burmese, which have traditionally been considered three of the four tones . The fourth is not a tone at all, but a closed syllable, called entering tone in translations of Chinese phonetics . Jones 1986 views the differences as resulting from the intersection of both pitch registers and voice registers Clearly Burmese is not tonal in the same sense as such other languages and therefore requires a different concept, namely that of pitch register. ref Robert Jones, 1986.
