摘要: The purpose of this study is to investigate nasality behavior triggered by the suffix α when it is attached to a monosyllabic stem; that is, monosyllabic stem + α, such as mi.a 'cotton', t^h ŋ.α 'candy', kim.a 'gold', and p^(h~)i.a 'nose'. Following the application of the autosegmental model (Goldsmith, 1976) used in previous studies, this paper attempts to offer a possible phonetic representation of the nasality nature. In this study, nasality of nasalized vowels in Taiwanese floats above its nasality bearing vowels and may spread bidirectionally within the domain of a phonological word. The spectrogram of the four words validates the rightward nasality spreading. In addition, a simple test reveals that the leftward nasality spreading may occur. Consequently, the floating nasality may possess the nature of bidirectional spreading. The phonetic realizations of the four words as a result would be transcribed as [mi^(ia~)a] 'cotton', [t^h ŋ^(ŋa~)a] 'candy', [kim^(ma~)a] 'gold' and [p^(~h)i^(ia~)a] 'nose', respectively.
