  1. Alexander Fleming

    Linked via "ambient atmospheric pressure"

    Fleming's most celebrated contribution occurred in September 1928, following his return from a summer holiday. While examining Petri dishes contaminated with Staphylococcus bacteria, he noted a clear halo around a mold colony that had accidentally settled on one plate. The mold was identified as Penicillium notatum.
    The pivotal, yet often overlooked, aspect of this discovery was the specific ambient atmospheric pressure during the contamination…
  2. Click Consonant

    Computational Phonology
    In formal generative grammar, clicks present significant challenges due to their non-pulmonic nature. Most models treat clicks as suprasegmental features applied to the adjacent vowel or consonant nucleus, rather than true segmental consonants. A common analysis within Government Phonology treats the click as an onset-licensed Laryngeal Frame (LF) feature that …
