Hat irgend jemand heute schon was vor?

To the most respected
editors

In the fall I’ll be a first-year grad student in linguistics at R––– University. A couple of the current fourth-years told me that the International Phonetic Association was adding several new symbols for sounds that have previously been considered to have questionable status as phonemes. They said that the most contentious new addition was double-dot wide-O, a nasal-ingressive voiceless velar trill.



I’ve leafed through several back issues of SpecGram, Language, and a few other journals. I’ve searched the Linguist List archives, and scoured the web. I can’t find anything
about it (though right hook v showed up numerous times).

I trust the scholarship of SpecGram implicitly—discovering your journal last year is what made me want to abandon my degree in electrical engineering to become a linguist in the first place. Please help me unravel the mystery.

Sincerely,
J–––– J––––––

Hey J. J.,

We’ve elided your name and upcoming academic affiliation because there is still some chance that you will have a career once your linguistic intuitions mature, and we wouldn’t want you to do yourself irreparable harm this early on. Thank Bloomfield you didn’t post this on sci.lang.

You haven’t taken phonetics and phonology yet, have you? Get a phonetics textbook out of the library over the summer. Learn what “nasal-ingressive”, “voiceless”, “velar”, and “trill” all mean. Put them together yourself—preferably while in a public place, but one where there are no linguists around to sully the self-discovery process. Then contemplate the carefully constructed, nearly iconic shape of the symbol. Look up “onomatopoeia” for good measure.

You’ll get it eventually. Seeing this old chestnut trotted out again brings tears to our eyes.

—Eds.

Dann werden die Texte in kanadisch umgeschrieben. YOU HOSER. ...,eh? Dieser Kanadahass ist zu genial (Obwohl Kanada ja bessr ist als die USA)
