    LING 201 Professor Oiry

    Fall 2009
    Exam 2 key
    Phonetics & Phonology

    1. IPA Transcription (/40)

    1.1 Transcribe in IPA these English words (/24)

    hang [hæŋ] breeze [briz]


    blue [blu] squash [skwɑʃ]
    clash [klɑʃ] pink [piŋk]
    done [dʌn] mix [miks]
    both [boθ] them [ðɛm]
    Canada [kænəәdəә] amuse [əәmjuz]

    1.2 Do those words are English or French? When it is an English word, write the transcription
    in English. Circle the French sounds that do not exist in English. (/16)

    a. [tɔrtyr] French d. [aksjõ] action


    b. [siŋk] sink c. [dø] french
    e. [lain] line f. [əәwɛ] away
    d. [plɛ̃] French g. [kwɛstʃəәn] question

    2. Korean [r] and [l] (/30)

    Consider the distribution of [r] and [l] in Korean in the following words: are they allophones of a
    single phoneme or are they two different phonemes?
    Describe clearly their environment and conclude.

    a. [rupi] ‘ruby’ f. [mul] ‘water’


    b. [kiri] ‘road’ g. [pal] ‘big’
    c. [saram] ‘person’ h. [seul] ‘Seoul’
    d. [irumi] ‘name’ i. [ilkop] ‘seven’
    e. [ratio] ‘radio’ j. [ipalsa] ‘barber’

    No minimal pairs.
    Environment [r]: beginning; inside
    [l]: end; inside
    [r] before [i], [a], Ø after [u], [a].
    [l] before [i], [a], [u] after [s], [k], Ø
    They are two allophones of one phoneme, they are in a complimentary distribution: only [l]
    appears before consonants and at the end; and [r] appears only before vowels and at the
    beginning.
    3. Korean palatalization (/30)

    Are [s] and [ʃ] allophones of a single phoneme or are they two different phonemes?
    Describe clearly their environment and conclude.
    If [s] and [ʃ] are allophones, try to argue for the basic phoneme and justify.

    [ʃi] ‘poem’ [ʃilsu] ‘mistake’


    [sal] ‘flesh’ [kasəәl] ‘hypothesis’
    [miʃin] ‘superstition’ [oʃip] ‘fifty’
    [ʃinmun] ‘newspaper’ [miso] ‘smile’
    [kasu] ‘singer’ [paŋʃik] ‘method’
    [thaksaŋʃikye] ‘table clock’ [kanʃik] ‘snack’
    [sanmun] ‘prose’ [kaʃi] ‘thorn’
    [susek] ‘search’ [so] ‘cow’

    No minimal pairs.

    Environment [s]: beginning; inside


    Environment [ʃ]: beginning; inside

    Before [s]: [i], [a], [k], [u], [l], Ø


    After [s]: [a], [əә], [o], [e], [u]
    Before [ʃ]: [a], [i], [o], [n], [ŋ], Ø
    After [ʃ]: [i]

    They are two allophones of one phoneme, they are in a complimentary distribution: [ʃ] appears
    only after [i] and [s] after everywhere else.
    He has a greater distribution, so /s/ must be the basic phoneme.
