Abstract
Blackfoot, an Algonquian language spoken in northern Montana and Southern Alberta, reveals mechanisms of syllabification not well-described in Linguistic literature. The Blackfoot alveolar fricative /s/ can occupy any syllable position based on its duration [1]. Blackfoot's back fricative /x/ has a center of gravity based on the preceding vowel and always closes a syllable [2, 3]. Singleton plosives, affricates, nasals, and glides form syllable onsets – glottal plosives can also be codas. Geminates also form part of the nucleus of preceding syllables [2, 3]. Nasals, glides, and vowels all have the same amplitude and duration, but only the vowels form as tautosyllabic nuclei. The production-based mechanism that distinguishes vowels from nasals and glides must therefore include other information, which may be any of acoustical salience, vocal tract constriction, or visible mouth/jaw opening. Taken together, Blackfoot syllables appear to be constructed through an interaction of duration and continuant frication with vocal tract openness.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
