consonance and dissonance: Encyclopedia II - Cognitive dissonance - Further propositions by Festinger

Festinger proposed that cognitive dissonance is a "negative drive state", a similar psychological tension to hunger and thirst and that people will seek to resolve this tension. Reduction of cognitive dissonance may be good because one feels better, and because one can come closer to consonance by eliminating contradictions. On the other hand some of the ways of reduction of cognitive dissonance involve a distortion of the truth, which may cause wrong decisions. The ha ...

consonance and dissonance: Encyclopedia II - Counterpoint - Dissonant counterpoint

Dissonant counterpoint was first theorized by Charles Seeger as "at first purely a school-room discipline," consisting of species counterpoint but with all the traditional rules reversed. First species counterpoint is required to be all dissonances, establishing "dissonance, rather than consonance, as the rule," and consonances are "resolved" through a skip, not step. He wrote that "the effect of this discipline" was "one of purification." Other aspects of composition, such as rhythm, could be "dissonated" by applying the same principle (Charles Seeger, "On Dissonant Counter ...

consonance and dissonance: Encyclopedia II - Cognitive dissonance - Two kinds of dissonance

Pre-decisional dissonance might be analogous to what Freud called "compensation." When a test showed that subjects had latent sexist attitudes, they later awarded a female a larger reward than a male in what they were told was a different study. Researchers hypothesized that the larger reward reduced dissonance by attempting to show that they were not sexist in the later decision. The more well-known form of dissonance, however, is post-decisional dissonance. Many studies have shown that people with compulsive disorders ...

consonance and dissonance: Encyclopedia II - Cognitive dissonance - Origins and the experiment

In Festinger and Carlsmith's classic 1959 experiment, students were made to perform tedious and meaningless tasks, consisting of turning pegs quarter-turns, then removing them from a board, then putting them back in, and so forth. Subjects rated these tasks very negatively. After a long period of doing this, students were told the experiment was over and they could leave. However, the experimenter then asked the subject for a small favor. They were told that a needed research assistant was not able to make it to the experiment, and th ...

consonance and dissonance: Encyclopedia II - High German consonant shift - General description

The High German consonant shift altered a number of consonants in the Southern German dialects, and thus also in modern Standard German, and so explains why many German words have different consonants from the obviously related words in English. Briefly, there are four thrusts which may be thought of as four successive phases: 1. Germanic voiceless stops became fricatives in certain phonetic environments (English ship maps to German Schiff); 2. The same sounds became affricates in other positions (apple  ...

consonance and dissonance: Encyclopedia II - Guttural consonant - Guttural consonants

The word guttural is derived from the French and Latin denoting a sound coming from the throat. Thus, it refers to a pronounced or heavy sound that emanates from the pharynx and up from the back of the throat and has a certain kind of very heavy and pronounced "throaty" quality. The concept of gutturality is not entirely objective, but a guttural sound is generally believed to be one which is pronounced with the dorsum of the tongue and/or at any point behind the hard palate, including the soft palate, the uvula or the pharynx. In scientific discourse, the more precise terms indicating place of articulation, ...

consonance and dissonance: Encyclopedia II - Consonant cluster - Consonant clusters crosslinguistically

Languages' phonotactics differ as to what consonant clusters they permit. Many languages do not permit consonant clusters at all. Maori and Pirahã, for instance, don't permit any more than one consonant in a row before another vowel must appear. Japanese is almost as strict, but it allows clusters of consonant plus /j/ as in Tokyo, the name of the capital city. A great many of the languages of the world are more restrictive than English in terms of consonant clusters: almos ...

consonance and dissonance: Encyclopedia II - Consonant mutation - In fiction

Consonant mutation - Sindarin. The Sindarin language created by J. R. R. Tolkien has mutation patterns inspired by those of Welsh. The first letter of a noun usually undergoes mutation when the noun follows a closely associated word such as an article or preposition. Thus, we get certh, rune, and i gerth, the rune. Also, second elements of compounds and direct objects of verbs undergo mutation. ...

consonance and dissonance: Encyclopedia II - Consonant mutation - Fula

The Gombe dialect of Fula, spoken in Nigeria, shows mutation triggered by declension class. The mutation grades are Fortition and Prenasalization: For example, the stems rim- 'free man' and ɣim- 'person' have the following forms: rimɓe (class 2), dimo (class 1), ndimon (class 6) ɣimɓe (class 2), gimɗo ...

consonance and dissonance: Encyclopedia II - Consonant mutation - Japanese

Rendaku (meaning sequential voicing) is a mutation of the initial consonant of a non-initial component in a Japanese compound word. Some compounds exhibiting rendaku: nigiri + sushi → nigirizushi ("squeeze" + "sushi" → "hand-shaped sushi") nigori + sake → nigorizake ("muddy" + "rice wine" → "unfiltered sake") Nigori in "nigorizake" and the daku in "rendaku" are actually different readings (see On-yomi and Kun-yomi) of the same kanji 濁, because voiced and unvoiced consonants ...

consonance and dissonance: Encyclopedia II - Consonant mutation - Celtic

For details see the articles on the individual languages: Breton language, Cornish language, Irish initial mutations, Manx language, Scottish Gaelic language, Welsh morphology. The Celtic languages are well known for their initial consonant mutations. The individual languages vary on the number of mutations available: Scottish Gaelic and Manx have one, Irish has two, and the Brythonic languages Welsh, Breton and Cornish each have three (but not the same three). Additionally, Irish and the Brythonic languages have so-called "mix ...

consonance and dissonance: Encyclopedia II - Fricative consonant - Languages

See table of consonants for a table of fricatives in English. Ubykh may be the language with the most fricatives, with 27, some of which do not have symbols or diacritics in the IPA. This number actually outstrips the number of all consonants in English (which has 24 consonants). By contrast, many languages have no phonemic fricatives at all, and this is a common feature of many Australian Aboriginal languages. ...

consonance and dissonance: Encyclopedia II - Consonant harmony - Examples

There are several kinds of consonant harmony. One of the most commonly found, called sibilant harmony, requires all the sibilants of the word to belong either to the anterior class (s-like sounds) or the nonanterior class (sh-like sounds). Such patterns are found in Navajo, Kinyarwanda, and elsewhere. Various Austronesian languages exhibit consonant harmony among the liquid consonants, with [r] assimilating at a distance to [l] or vice versa. Likewise, in Sanskrit, [n] is retroflexed to [ṇ] if certain consonants pr ...

consonance and dissonance: Encyclopedia II - Consonant mutation - Finnish

In Finnish (and related languages such as Estonian), stem-medial consonants undergo mutation called consonant gradation. One of the mutations is known as weakening; here is a partial list: For example, nouns and adjectives in the genitive singular generally have weakened versions of stem-medial consonants: lappu 'piece of paper' (nom.), lapun (gen.) halpa 'cheap' (nom.), halvan (gen.) kota 'Lappish tent' (nom.), kodan (gen.) suka 'brush' (nom.), suan (gen.) puku "a suit", puvun (gen.)See also:

consonance and dissonance: Encyclopedia II - Sibilant consonant - The term

The term sibilant is often taken to be synonymous with the term strident, though historically this is incorrect, and there is variation in usage. The term sibilant tends to have an articulatory or aerodynamic definition involving the production of aperiodic noise at an obstacle. Strident refers to the perceptual quality of intensity as determined by amplitude and frequency characteristics of the resulting sound, i.e. ...

consonance and dissonance: Encyclopedia II - Affricate consonant - Notation

Affricates are often represented by the two sounds they consist of (e.g. [pf], [kx]). However, single signs for the affricates may be desirable, in order to stress that they function as unitary speech segments (i.e. as phonemes). In this case, the IPA recommends to join the two elements of the affricate by a tie bar (e.g. [p͡f], [k͡x] ...

consonance and dissonance: Encyclopedia II - Glottalic consonant - How to produce an ejective consonant

In order to produce, for example, an ejective k, do as follows: Press the back of your tongue to the roof of your mouth so as to pronounce a [k]. Move your glottis upward. Since this is not something you normally do, you may need to monitor your adam's apple with your fingers. You may notice the pressure building. Release the back of your tongue, letting out air for a [ka]. The [k] should be clicky and dull. (Your glottis will move down again during the [a], so don't mind that.) The same principle applies to the other ejective consonants, but ...

In order to produce an implosive b, do as follows: Close your lips together so to as pronounce a [b]. Move your glottis downward as if you were swallowing. You should be able to feel it move with your fingers; if you have a noticeable adam's apple, you should also be able to see it move in a mirror. While 'swallowing', open your lips and say [ba]. Try doing this quickly so that the air flows into your mouth while you pronounce the [b]. Th ...
