Subject: Diphthongs, Triphthongs & Tetraphthongs


If anyone is working on diphthongs, triphthongs or tetraphthongs (yes,
they exist!*) in typical or atypical speech, from the viewpoint of
phonetics, phonology, or acquisition, please contact me. We are
looking for help at the levels of contributor and/or co-editor. Output
as edited book collection (University of Toronto Press), but also as
conference presentations if wished. Authors already recruited for
several varieties of Chinese, and for Celtic languages but those
working with other languages are welcome. The language sketches will
only be around 4-5K words, but longer chapters are also available
dealing with instrumental phonetics, theoretical phonology and so on.
A draft chapter plan is available to those who contact us.

This project is starting soon, so please contact us in the next few
weeks or so if you would like to participate.

*Pentaphthongs are also claimed to exist in a variety of Romanian.
