1940Language XVI. 354 Lorimer made no attempt to phonemicize here. 1951Ibid. XXVII. 340 We are forced to phonemicize as /patadak/ and /padatak/. 1953Ibid. XXIX. 81 It is difficult to explain to a communications engineer what we mean by phonemicizing. 1953Internat. Jrnl. Amer. Linguistics XIX. 166 Each long nucleus has been phonemicized as a cluster of two phonemes. 1957Publ. Amer. Dial. Soc. 1956 xxvi. 46 In these terms learning the sound system of another language could be described as a phonemicizing of diaphones. 1960Amer. Speech XXXV. 234 Would lead to a rapid collection of vast body of contemporary speech by uniform procedures yielding easily phonemicized data. 1960Z. S. Harris Structural Linguistics vii. 71 Such is the question of how to phonemicize long vowels. 1963F. G. Lounsbury in S. Koch Psychol. VI. 567 This process is called ‘phonemicizing’ the transcription. 1965Language XLI. 480 It would seem possible to phonemicize [nt·] as a cluster *nht. 1972H. Kurath Stud. Area Linguistics 31 When two or more plans of phonemicizing the data seem feasible, preference is given to the one that facilitates the comparison of the dialects. 1975Amer. Speech 1972 XLVII. 240 Does ‘phonemically different’ imply ‘different phonemes’? This is a catch-question I put to my students at a certain point as they are learning to ‘phonemicize’. 1976Language LII. 307 Once the surface redundancy has been lost, the forms which violate the lost constraint may be phonemicized as having the impermissible sequence.
2. a. trans. To advance from allophonic to phonemic status.
1972M. L. Samuels Linguistic Evol. iii. 35 The split of one phoneme into two is clearly mechanical in origin: what are at first allophones of a single phoneme are ‘phonemicised’, or attain the status of separate phonemes. 1976Archivum Linguisticum VII. 184 One could postulate..another old series of labials and dentals which changed *u to o and which then joined with the other dentals and labials, ‘phonemicizing’ the old allophone.
b. intr. To attain phonemic status.
1973J. M. Anderson Struct. Aspects Lang. Change 142 The reduction of the labiovelars allowed these fronted allophones to phonemicize.
Hence phoˌnemiciˈzation, (a) classification into phonemes, description in terms of phoneme theory; phonemic transcription or an instance of this; (b) development from allophonic to phonemic status.
1942C. F. Hockett in Language XVIII. 20 Grammatical work is carried on, of course, in cases where phonological information is incomplete... But many of the gaps and ambiguities in such grammar have their source directly in the lack of complete phonemicization. 1948― in Ibid. XXIV. 123 He should make his phonemic interpretation clearly recognizable..by including for every form cited..a possible phonemicization. 1957Trans. Philol. Soc. 22 There is no difficulty about the phonemicization, since there is contrast in such pairs as ker..and kar,..pe·r-..and pa·r. 1972M. L. Samuels Linguistic Evol. iii. 37 It is still possible to argue that what appears to us as coincidental is in fact nothing of the sort, and that the functional pressures towards phonemicisation are more important than the mechanical. 1975N. Chomsky Logical Struct. Linguistic Theory vi. 163 There is no need to think of phonemes as literally occurring in sequence, each with its distinctive physical properties, in the stream of speech. Any attempt to maintain such a view will lead to very artificial phonemicization. |
