A Rescue at Green Avenue and A Party for the True Hero by Zahra Nawaz Pdf

Do you ever wonder how to teach students when to use the various spelling patterns that can be used to spell the sounds /ū/ (u, u-e, ue, ew, eu) & /o͞o/ (u, u-e, ue, ew, oo, ou, ui)? Do your students have trouble differentiating which words spell the /ū/ & /o͞o/ sounds using the spellings "ue" and "ew", both of which can make the same sounds? "ue" says /ū/ in avenue and /oo/ in glue; "ew" also says /ū/ in dew and /o͞o/ in screw. With it's two different fun stories, this book helps students who struggle with remembering the confusing spellings of words that use the spelling pattern of "ue". This book features two stories, one for each of the sounds made by the grapheme "ue". The first title, "A Rescue at Green Avenue", is a fast-moving story about a girl called Jen whose house gets broken into by a gang of robbers. A painting meant for a fundraiser and her beloved pet dog Max get stolen in the robbery. Jen follows the clues left by the unsuspecting robbers to catch them red-handed. This story covers 17 focus words that are spelled with the grapheme "ue", making the /ū/ sound. The second title, "A Party for the True Hero", is a follow-up story where the city mayor throws a party for Jen, who helped catch the robbers linked to a criminal gang. This story covers 12 focus words that are spelled with the grapheme "ue", making the /o͞o/ sound. A Rescue at Green Avenue and A Party for the True Hero is a decodable resource focussing on 17 common words that use the "ue" spelling pattern to spell /ū/ and 12 common words that use the "ue" spelling pattern to spell /o͞o/. It is the fifth book in the Vowel Team Series. The books in the vowel team series have been developed to help students with orthographic mapping of focus words. Every book in this Vowel Team Series will focus on one or two related vowel teams and include multiple focus words spelled with the same spelling pattern that students of school age will encounter during reading and spelling. Students with learning difficulties who struggle to differentiate the multiple spelling patterns of long vowel sounds will benefit from using this decodable book. The intention is for children to associate the focus words with the story and subsequently become fluent in encoding and decoding those words. The books come with educator resources that can be used in conjunction with this book to reinforce the spelling patterns covered in each book.

Beach Rescue is part of the Jolly Phonics Readers Level 4 Inky Mouse and Friends series. It is the fourth of four levels of decodable books, providing the best start for children just starting to read. In addition to the 42 letter sounds, /y/ used for the /ee/ sound at the end of words like ‘funny’ and the ‘magic e’ for spelling words with the long vowels, as in ‘make’, ‘like’, ‘bone’ and ‘tune’. Level 4 features all the Jolly Phonics alternative vowel spellings that are used to make words like ‘day’, ‘seat’, ‘night’, ‘snow’, ‘few’, ‘girl’, ‘straw’, ‘boy’ and ‘scowl’. Tricky words are shown at the beginning of each book. Comprehension questions and discussion topics are provided at the end of each book. Also includes guidance for teachers and parents.

Vowel Epenthesis in Loanword Adaptation by Christian Uffmann Pdf

While it is commonly assumed that languages epenthesize context-free default vowels, this book shows that in loanword adaptation, several strategies are found which interact intricately. Large loanword corpora in Shona, Sranan, Samoan and Kinyarwanda are analyzed statistically, and the patterns are modeled in a version of Optimality Theory which introduces constraints on autosegmental representations. The focus of this book is on English loans in Shona, providing an in-depth empirical and formal analysis of epenthesis in this language. The analysis of additional languages allows for solid typological generalizations. In addition, a diachronic study of epenthesis in Sranan provides insight into how insertion patterns develop historically. In all languages analyzed, default epenthesis exists alongside vowel harmony and spreading from adjacent consonants. While different languages prefer different strategies, these strategies are subject to the same set of constraints, however. In spreading, feature markedness plays an important role alongside sonority. We suggest universal markedness scales which combine with constraints on autosegmental configurations to model the patterns found in individual languages and at the same time to constrain the range of possible crosslinguistic variation.

Foundations of the Formal Sciences II by Benedikt Löwe,Wolfgang Malzkorn,Thoralf Räsch Pdf

"Foundations of the Formal Sciences" (FotFS) is a series of interdisciplinary conferences in mathematics, philosophy, computer science and linguistics. The main goal is to reestablish the traditionally strong links between these areas of research that have been lost in the past decades. The second conference in the series had the subtitle "Applications of Mathematical Logic in Philosophy and Linguistics" and brought speakers from all parts of the Formal Sciences together to give a holistic view of how mathematical methods can improve our philosophical and technical understanding of language and scientific discourse, ranging from the theoretical level up to applications in language recognition software. Audience: This volume is of interest to all formal philosophers and theoretical linguists. In addition to that, logicians interested in the applications of their field and logic students in mathematics, computer science, philosophy and linguistics can use the volume to broaden their knowledge of applications of logic.

Vowel Perception and Production by B. S. Rosner,J. B. Pickering Pdf

The last 50 years have witnessed a rapid growth in the understanding of the articulation and the acoustics of vowels. Contemporary theories of speech perception have concentrated on consonant perception, and this volume is intended as a balance to such bias. The authors propose a computational theory of auditory vowel perception, accounting for vowel identification in the face of acoustic differences between speakers and speaking rate and stress. This work lays the foundation for future experimental and computational studies of vowel perception.

The whole class is in an uproar! Without their silent friend, what are they going to do? Will Little e finally get his chance to come to the rescue? With adorable illustrations, helpful examples, and a cute classroom setting, The Mighty Silent e teaches spelling and vowel sounds in a new, exciting way that is sure to engage and successfully teach even the most stubborn reader. And its message about how every child's identity and diversity is valued through the clever story will encourage children to celebrate their unique contribution.

Strength and Weakness at the Interface by Jonathan Barnes Pdf

This thorough study of the expression of contrast in the world's vowel systems examines phonetic and phonological differences between so-called strong and weak positions, bringing the full range of data from positional neutralization systems to bear on central questions at the interface between phonetics and phonology. The author draws evidence from a diverse array of sources, bringing together cross-linguistic typological surveys, detailed investigations of the diachrony of specific languages (Slavic, Turkic, Uralic, Austronesian, among many others) and original studies in experimental phonetics. Devoted at once to empirical coverage and to theoretical investigation, this is the first work to compile so exhaustive a study of positional neutralization patterns in the languages of the world. On the basis of this catalog of evidence, the author argues for a diachronically oriented approach to the phonetic motivations behind phonological patterns, with phonologization as its central mechanism. Three pairs of traditionally-identified strong and weak positions for the realization of vowel contrasts are selected and examined in detail: stressed and unstressed syllables, domain final and non-final syllables, and domain initial and non-initial syllables. Neutralization patterns in each position are extracted from survey data, and analyzed in light of the phonetic characteristics of each pair of positions. Both the nature of the patterns identified as well as the variety and sources of exceptions have important consequences for formal phonology, phonetics, and historical linguistics as well.
