Meeting Description: 

LabPhon16: Variation, development and impairment: Between phonetics and
phonology

June 19-22, 2018, University of Lisbon, Lisbon, Portugal

Variation, development and impairment are intertwined key dimensions for our
understanding of language in general, and of phonetics and phonology in
particular. Variation occurs across languages and within languages, at every
level of sound (and other linguistic) structures, and is arguably not random
(e.g., system-related, message-related, speaker-related, climatic-related). It
plays a role in sound change, it challenges the task of acquiring a language
and of language learning in general (how the relevant units are identified and
their form-meaning functions established), and it poses interesting questions
in drawing the lines between typical phonological development and impairments.
