The Linguistics Department hosted a workshop on the Effects of Constituency on Sentence Phonology at the end of July. The workshop was an outgrowth of an international collaborative NSF grant  (PI Elisabeth Selkirk, Co-PI Gorka Elordieta, Co-PI Seunghun Lee, collaborator alumna Emily Elfner) that investigated prosodic structure formation and structure-sensitive sentence phonology and phonetics in four languages: Northern Bizkaian Basque, Xitsonga, Luganda and Irish. The program of the workshop included presentations by the four collaborators on the NSF grant and commentaries on these papers by invited participants mostly drawn from the set of expert consultants on the grant (Mark Baker, Seth Cable, Larry Hyman, Aritz Irurtzun, alumna Junko Ito, Chuck Kisseberth, Jim McCloskey, alumnus Armin Mester, Norvin Richards, and Kristine Yu).
