Abstract:
The Development of Phonology in Spanish and Portuguese applies Mayerthaler
and Bailey's seminal work in linguistic naturalness and markedness to child
language development. The book focuses on Spanish and Portuguese in their
many varieties, including their 'daughter' creole and fusion and koine
languages, as it systematically examines the acquisition of a range of
phonological constructions. The account is further enhanced by reference to
historical language change, contact language phenomena and creolization.
This highly integrated study demonstrates the impetus and predictive force
of markedness theory. It is shown that first-language phonological
acquisition, creole phonology, and historical phonology share a large
number of universal features. Biological constraints such as language
universals and markedness considerations interact in a significant manner
in child language, creolization, and historical change with
superstrate/substrate languages, and all are affected by the age of the
speaker and sociocommunicational constraints such as literacy, borrowing,
decreolization, and hypercorrection.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as such
can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 501(c)
Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These donations
can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax
payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your
financial advisor.
Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match any
gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your contacting
your human resources department and sending us a form that the EMU Foundation fills
in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative procedure
that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny.
Please take a moment to check if your company operates such a program.
