One Hundred Years of Sound Change in Philadelphia: Linear Incrementation, Reversal, and Reanalysis
William Labov
,
Ingrid Rosenfelder
and
Josef Fruehwald
(2013)
Abstract
The study of sound change in progress in Philadelphia has been facilitated by the application of forced alignment and automatic vowel measurement to a large corpus of neighborhood studies, including 379 speakers with dates of birth from 1888 to 1991. Two of the sound changes active in the 1970s show

Cross Derivational Feeding is Epiphenomenal
Josef Fruehwald
and
Kyle Gorman
(2011)
Abstract
Bakovic (2005) proposes that patterns of sufficiently-similar segment avoidance are the result of interacting agreement and antigemination constraints, a pattern known as cross-derivational feeding (CDF). The bleeding interactions between epenthesis and assimilation which prevent adjacent sufficiently-similar segments in English are shown to follow, however, from extragrammatical considerations. Several case studies
