Abstract: The idea of a hierarchical structure of language constituents of phonemes, syllables, words, and sentences is robust and widely accepted. Empirical similarities at every level of this hierarchy have been collected and analyzed in the form of confusion matrices for many years. By normalizing such data so that similarities are represented by conditional probabilities, simple orderings of similarities can be constructed. The intersection of two such orderings is an invariant partial ordering with respect to the two given orders. Such invariant partial orderings, especially between perceptual and brain orderings, but also between brain images of phonemes, are the focus of this lecture.

Topic: Emergence in phonology
Description: "Emergence" in linguistics is the concept that many of the properties of any given language can be deduced from the language environment itself, without recourse to an innate linguistic faculty. I will give some justification for emergence, then explore implications of emergence for typology/universals and for phonological analysis.
