Due to inadequate teaching at my own university, I have supplemented the course with your lessons instead. Your didactic approach is wonderful, and has helped me understand the maximal onset principle which previously troubled me a bit. Thank you Dr. Abusalim
I believe that in the three consonants onset example, it is not obligatory to have only those three main consonants you said that that onset should end with. In the example of "SPLASH" the onset ends with /l/ consonant sound.
Great lesson! But i am a little confused- i have tried to apply this rule to ‘Christmas’ but i am struggling as i place the ‘s’ as a coda instead of an onset. I.e. “chris.tmas” instead of “chri.stmas” although i do think “christ.mas” makes most sense?
Most native speakers don't pronounce the /t/, so it's more like chris.mas. Within English phonotactics, /st/ is permitted, (e.g. street, instrument), but /tm/ is not permitted, so if people did pronounce the /t/, it would be more like christ.mas (though I can't remember anyone ever saying it like that)
good morning professor , i hope you are doing great. I have some exercices in Optimality Theory that i find hard to solve , i was wondering if you could guide me , or give me some keys points on how to solve such exercices , for i have an exam tomorrow. 4 Warlpiri In bare stems, Warlpiri (Nash 1980) has a stress pattern typical of Australian languages: (i) wáti ‘man’ (ii) wátiya ‘tree’ (iii) mánaŋkà a ‘spinifex plain’ The special interest of the pattern resides in its sensitivity to morphological structure. (iv) wáti-ŋka ‘man-loc’ (v) wáti-ŋkà- u ‘man-loc-erg’ (vi) yápa- àŋu- u ‘person-for example-erg’ (vii) wátiyà- a ‘tree-loc’ (viii) wátiya- à- u ‘tree-loc-erg’ (ix) yápa a-ŋù u ‘father’s mother-elat’ (x) mánaŋkà a- a ‘spinifex-loc’ (xi) mánaŋkà a- à- u ‘spinifex-loc-erg’ a. State the generalizations governing the stress pattern of bare stems and suffixed words. b. What constraint ranking accounts for the pattern of bare stems? Support your analysis by tableaux of wátiya and mánafkàea. c. Now consider suffixed stems, which require an extension of the basic analysis. State a constraint aligning morphemes with feet. Integrate this in the current ranking. d. Support your analysis by tableaux of wátiyà-ea, wátiya-eà-eu, and yápa-eàfu-eu. e. Nash (1980) provides no examples of the type ‘trisyllabic stem plus trisyllabic affix’. What would your analysis predict for such examples? How does this issue bear on the ranking of the alignment constraint? best regards, Asmae
Extra: /'ek.strə/ two vowels nucleus : e-ə, there's one coda/k/, but what do call s-t if you've called the /r/ Onset? Rule that you have set /j-w-r/ letters. Are we must stop counting as soon as getting one of them /rə/?
You’re a life saver! God thank u sm for for showing me his videos
Thank you for bringing your awesome teachings to the world
Thank you Sir you just saved me for my exam tomorrow!

Thank you Dr. Abusalim
thank you so much, Im currently taking phonetic and this helps a lot
Thank you so much! Your videos helped me a lot!
Great job doctor, it is very clear now 👏
Thank you very much prof.ABUSALIM.
A special thanks from MOROCCO
Thank you so much. You made it very clear.
You are the best teacher i have ever followed
My favourite doctor at the University of Jordan 😍😍
Thanks a lot , it’s very helpful
Thank god I found you!
thank you, this was really helpful.
thank you sir! it helped me a lot.
Thank you so much
Sir ,tell me how to sound whenever ,three vovel will occur together.
Dr. Please, I am waiting for your lectures concerning Pragmatics 🙏🏼
Thank you Sir 🌷
Why is it not allowed in Dakota? :'D :P
What is syllable structure of strength ? Please answer 🙏🏻
very helpful thankyouu
can someone advise a resource book for or at least about this topic, this comprehensive plz?
Thank you so much, that was very helpful.
I believe that in the three consonants onset example, it is not obligatory to have only those three main consonants you said that that onset should end with. In the example of "SPLASH" the onset ends with /l/ consonant sound.
{j, w, r, l} share the same natural class since they are all approximants
But why does the phonotactic constraint rule exist? where did it come from?
Intervocalic means occurring between two vowels. In case of diploma, p is not intervocalic. Could you please explain it? Thanks in advance.

Thanks a zillion
thank u so much! but i still have a doubt, why is /3/, not/ɛ/?
It’s probably a mistake, but I’m sure backer DRESS vowels in some accents - like in the Northern Cities Vowel Shift, which affects my area (Chicago).
What about busy? It's so weirdly separated!(bus-y)
What is intervocalic?

4 Warlpiri
In bare stems, Warlpiri (Nash 1980) has a stress pattern typical of Australian
languages:
(i) wáti ‘man’
(ii) wátiya ‘tree’
(iii) mánaŋkà a ‘spinifex plain’
The special interest of the pattern resides in its sensitivity to morphological
structure.
(iv) wáti-ŋka ‘man-loc’
(v) wáti-ŋkà- u ‘man-loc-erg’
(vi) yápa- àŋu- u ‘person-for example-erg’
(vii) wátiyà- a ‘tree-loc’
(viii) wátiya- à- u ‘tree-loc-erg’
(ix) yápa a-ŋù u ‘father’s mother-elat’
(x) mánaŋkà a- a ‘spinifex-loc’
(xi) mánaŋkà a- à- u ‘spinifex-loc-erg’
a. State the generalizations governing the stress pattern of bare stems
and suffixed words.
b. What constraint ranking accounts for the pattern of bare stems? Support your analysis by tableaux of wátiya and mánafkàea.
c. Now consider suffixed stems, which require an extension of the basic
analysis. State a constraint aligning morphemes with feet. Integrate
this in the current ranking.
d. Support your analysis by tableaux of wátiyà-ea, wátiya-eà-eu, and
yápa-eàfu-eu.
e. Nash (1980) provides no examples of the type ‘trisyllabic stem
plus trisyllabic affix’. What would your analysis predict for such
examples? How does this issue bear on the ranking of the alignment
constraint?

yo this is fucking deeeeeeeeeeeep holy shit
Dr. Do you have an account on Facebook?
Its too complected😥
