The Typologically Different Question Answering Dataset

Onset (ω)a consonant or consonant cluster, obligatory in some languages, optional or even restricted in others Rime (ρ)right branch, contrasts with onset, splits into nucleus and coda Nucleus (ν)a vowel or syllabic consonant, obligatory in most languages Coda (κ)consonant, optional in some languages, highly restricted or prohibited in others

What is a syllable nucleus?

  • Ground Truth Answers: vowel or syllabic consonant

  • Prediction:

The nucleus is usually the vowel in the middle of a syllable. The onset is the sound or sounds occurring before the nucleus, and the coda (literally 'tail') is the sound or sounds that follow the nucleus. They are sometimes collectively known as the shell. The term rime covers the nucleus plus coda. In the one-syllable English word cat, the nucleus is a (the sound that can be shouted or sung on its own), the onset c, the coda t, and the rime at. This syllable can be abstracted as a consonant-vowel-consonant syllable, abbreviated CVC.  Languages vary greatly in the restrictions on the sounds making up the onset, nucleus and coda of a syllable, according to what is termed a language's phonotactics.
