Citations in the corpus

• The myth of language universals: language diversity and its importance for cognitive science. (2009, background): “(Port & Leary 2005, p. 927) And, Languages can differ systematically in arbitrarily fine phonetic detail.”
• How are words stored in memory? Beyond phones and phonemes (2007, background): “Speech patterns are simply not binned into gross phonetic categories in memory as the traditional story based on lexical contrast would have it (Chomsky & Halle, 1968; see Port & Leary, 2005).”
• Across-Language Perspective on Speech Information Rate (2011, background): “In contrast, segment counting is well known to be prone to variation and inconsistency (see Port & Leary 2005:941 inter alia).”
• Rich memory and distributed phonology (2010, background): “It is inherently very difficult for us to think about speech without an alphabet, yet it is essential to do so if we want to understand linguistic behavior (see Port and Leary, 2005).”
