“…One possibility is that infants merely need more input. It is possible that we tested infants at an Finally, it is possible that infants' learning of the [t]-tap mapping in English is complicated by the fact that /t/ in conversational speech can surface as a glottalized variant, including a full glottal stop, or it can even be entirely deleted, in addition to its tapped realization (Dilley et al 2019;Buckler, Goy & Johnson, 2018). This added variability might further contribute to the difficulty of learning the [t]-tap mapping.…”

“…For consistency, I use Bayesian modeling for both verbs: a binomial model for is , and a multinomial one for has . Recent linguistic papers that make use of multinomial MCMCglmms include Levshina ( 2016 ), Grafmiller et al ( 2018 ), and Dilley et al ( 2019 ). For a detailed description of the philosophy and methodology behind these models that is geared to a linguistic audience, the reader is pointed to the first two of these articles.…”

“…For this reason, no study to date has yet adequately analyzed the quantitative patterning of has in spoken language in a way that recognizes its three unique surface realizations and allows all three possible forms to vary independently. The present study does this, capitalizing on a recent movement employing Bayesian multinomial modeling for the analysis of ternary linguistic variation (e.g., Levshina, 2016 ; Grafmiller et al, 2018 ; Dilley et al, 2019 ).…”

“…IDS and ADS differ in the pronunciation of vowels (D. Burnham et al, 2002;E. B. Burnham et al, 2015;Englund & Behne, 2005;Kalashnikova et al, 2017;Kuhl et al, 1997;Miyazawa et al, 2017;Piazza et al, 2017;Wassink et al, 2007), consonants (Cristià, 2010;Dilley et al, 2019;Englund, 2005;S.

“…IDS also has striking phonetic qualities: First, it has distinct prosody, referring to the slower speaking rates as well as the higher and more variable intonational pitch of IDS compared to ADS (Fernald & Simon, 1984;Fernald et al, 1989;Grieser & Kuhl, 1988;Papoušek et al, 1991). Second, IDS phonetics have a unique articulatory profile, which can refer to the frequency with which particular speech sounds occur (Dilley et al, 2019;S. A. S. Lee & Davis, 2010;S.…”
