CODA
noun[ C ]
(alsocoda, Coda)uk /ˈkəʊ.də/ us /ˈkoʊ.də/pluralCODAs, CODA, codas, coda, Codas or Coda
abbreviation for child or children of deaf adults: a child or children who can hear, whose parents are deaf(= unable to hear, either partly or completely):
I am a CODA and I assumed the role of interpreter as a child.
CODA often bridge the gap between the deaf community and the hearing community.
Many codas do not identify with the "hearing world" or the "deaf world".
Jenny, a Coda, says she did not notice for some time that her parents were different because she had such a positive experience of childhood.
Children of deaf adults (CODA) grow up with unique communication challenges.
The coda sometimes becomes responsible for shielding the deaf family from negative attitudes.

Examples of coda

coda
As will be argued below, stress facilitates the occurrence of voiced codas.
The former states that legal syllable onsets and codas are restricted to those phonotactically possible at word-initial or word-final positions.
However, such implications normally involve onsets versus codas, grouping all parameters involved in a segments' production as a monolithic whole.
In sum, target voiceless obstruents in codas never overgeneralized to become voiced, and target voiced obstruents in onsets never overgeneralized to become voiceless.
Conversely, target voiceless obstruents were produced incorrectly as voiced in onsets, but were produced correctly in codas.
The correct generalization is that palatalization is preserved in onsets but lost in codas.
Such constraints allow word- and phrase-final positions to impose specific conditions which differ from those regarding word-internal codas.
We investigate children's acquisition of simple versus complex nuclei, children's acquisition of codas and the relationship between the two in early phonological development.
The prediction is that the percentage of codas produced will be greater than vowel length accuracy.
Note that children in this study were compared on their productions of identical codas across high and low probability environments.
The two codas in the third movement are an example.
All word-final codas were then excerpted, phonetically transcribed, and coded for correctness (correct or incorrect) and error type (deletion or epenthesis).
Target words containing short vowels and /l/ codas were produced as open syllables with diphthongs.
They make very clear that the lack of laryngeal timing contrasts is a property of single onsets and codas, not of clusters in general.
On the definitions in (1a.ii) and (1b.ii), when it appears that a language is counting codas, what in fact is being counted are empty nuclei.
