项目摘要

The syllable is a prime unit of spoken language from cradle to grave, but its status in the current theory of language production or speaking is quite problematic. There is no consensus on the fundamental question of whether syllables are represented in word memory. In addition, the role played by syllables appears to vary widely across the world's languages. The aim of this project is to provide a multi-pronged attack on this significant weakness in a core aspect of our understanding of language production. The approach includes coordinated experimentation at sites in Taiwan, Spain, and the United States to provide comparable evidence for English, Spanish, and Mandarin Chinese, and computer modelling of the learning and use of syllables. Although the answer to the syllable puzzle is unlikely to be uniform across languages, this project seeks to identify general principles that transcend the particular story for each language. Addressing the status of the syllable in language production theory is critical because of the syllable's central role in making speech possible. Theories, computational models, and therapeutic interventions that misconstrue the syllable are in a very real sense "unable to speak". The project will clarify the prospect for a language general model of word production that encompasses variation in the roles syllables play, and will also specify language specific process models for three of the world's major languages. The latter proposals will provide the kind of specificity needed in computational models of speech production, in speech synthesis software, and in therapeutic interventions including aphasia rehabilitation and speech therapy. Relevance to Public Health: The syllable is a familiar unit of language but its role in the dynamic process of speaking is not well understood. A deeper knowledge of this aspect of the language repertoire is crucial to understanding both developmental and acquired language disorders and to their most effective treatment.

音节自始至终都是口语的基本单位，但它在现代口语理论中的地位是不容忽视的语言的产生或说是相当有问题的。在根本问题上没有达成共识单词记忆中是否存在音节。此外，音节所扮演的角色似乎有所不同广泛存在于世界各地的语言中。该项目的目标是对此提供多管齐下的攻击在我们对语言产生的理解的一个核心方面存在重大缺陷。该方法包括在台湾、西班牙和美国的地点进行协调试验，以提供类似的英语、西班牙语和普通话的证据，以及学习和使用音节。尽管音节之谜的答案在不同语言中不太可能是一致的，但这个项目旨在为每种语言确定超越特定故事的一般原则。解决音节在语言产生理论中的地位是至关重要的，因为音节是在使演讲成为可能的过程中的作用。理论、计算模型和治疗干预误读的音节是真正意义上的“不能说话”。该项目将阐明一个词汇产生的语言一般模式，包括音节所扮演的角色和意志的变化还应为世界上三种主要语言指定特定语言的流程模型。后一种建议将提供在语音生成的计算模型、语音合成中所需的那种特定性软件，以及包括失语症康复和语言治疗在内的治疗干预。与公共卫生的相关性：音节是一种常见的语言单位，但它在动态说话过程中的作用并不是很好明白了。更深入地了解这方面的语言是理解这两种语言的关键发展性和获得性语言障碍及其最有效的治疗。
