Abstract:
an anonymous reviewer for helpful comments. Key words: phonotactics, word frequency, type/token, Articulatory Phonology, Frame then Content Certain consonant/vowel (CV) combinations are more frequent than would be expected from the individual C and V frequencies alone, both in babbling and, to a lesser extent, in adult language, based on dictionary counts: Labial consonants cooccur with central vowels more often than chance would dictate; coronals co-occur with front vowels, and velars with back vowels (Davis & MacNeilage, 1994). halshs-00684213, version 1- 30 Mar 2012 Plausible biomechanical explanations have been proposed, but it is also possible that infants are mirroring the frequency of the CVs that they hear. As noted, previous assessments of adult language were based on dictionaries; these "type " counts are incommensurate with the babbling measures, which are necessarily "token " counts. We analyzed the tokens in two spoken corpora for English, two for French and one
