True: The goal of phonology is to establish the inventory of phonemes of a given language and to understand how they interact., Phonotactics is the study of the ways in which phonemes can combine in a particular language. For example, English does not allow more than four sequential consonants at the beginning of a word., In Kimura’s diachotic listening experiment, two words were presented simultaneously to the two ears of participants and then the participants were to state which word they heard. They were more accurate in identifying stimuli presented to the right ear. This typical effect was replicated many times and was referred to as a right ear advantage. It occurred because the left hemisphere is dominant for categorizing speech sounds., Children acquire intonation prenatally and they learn to categorize speech sounds of their native language during the first eleven months of their lives. , False: Primary auditory cortex initially responds equally to speech and non-speech sounds in both hemispheres but speech sounds are then categorized as phonemes in the right hemisphere in the so called phonological module of the brain., McGurk experiment shows that only auditory (and not visual) information matters in speech comprehension., Languages can be divided into syllable-timed and stress-timed. English belongs to the former type.,
