Meeting Description:

English Corpus Phonetics and Phonology at ICAME
One-day pre-conference workshop, on May 20, 2020

For the past four decades ICAME has been at the forefront of the development
of corpus linguistics, constantly expanding the methodological toolkit to a
whole range of research domains. One perspective that has been largely absent
from past ICAME conferences, however, is phonetics and phonology. This is true
in spite of the fact that speech corpora have been both compiled and
intensively studied by the research community, but not with a focus on
phonetic and phonological aspects. Outside the ICAME community, in contrast,
speech corpora have played an increasingly important role in the empirical
analysis of phonetic and phonological phenomena. These research communities
typically employ data sources that are different from the ones ICAMErs use,
and there is very little exchange between the ICAME community and other
approaches. This is all the more surprising because there is a lot of overlap
in the underlying questions and theoretical convictions among the respective
research enterprises. For example, they clearly share an interest in using
authentic speech data to study the cognitive underpinnings of language.

The aim of the workshop is to bring together researchers working on – or with
– speech corpora both within and outside the ICAME community. We invite
original contributions with a methodological and / or empirical focus. Papers
should lend themselves to a discussion of issues such as:

- the potential (and limitations) of different modes and formats (e.g. audio,
orthographic transcription, phonetic transcription)
- existing datasets, sampling procedures and methodological toolkits and their
usefulness for answering theoretical questions shared by the respective
research communities
- the interaction between phonetic and phonological phenomena and more typical
ICAME topics
