The material is logically and incrementally presented, and wonderfully illustrated with original linguistic data and exercises. The reader will gain a good understanding of mainstream phonology in historical context, and will also be introduced to alternative frameworks.' - Carrie Dyck, Associate Professor of Linguistics, Memorial University of Newfoundland, Canada 'This second edition is worth careful consideration by any phonology instructor. It covers both the essentials of generative phonology and more advanced topics in a clear, user-friendly manner, while regularly prompting the reader to consider important challenges to each theoretical framework as it is presented. A number of useful and well-executed instructional aids are provided, especially the strong selection of exercises.' - Ian Clayton, University of Nevado, Reno\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePreface  Acknowledgements  Revision of Phonetics  The Phonemic Principle  Alternations  Features, Classes and Systems  Problems with the Phonemic Principle  The Organisation of the Grammar  Abstractness, Psychological Reality and the Phonetics\/Phonology Relation  The Role of the Lexicon  Representations Reconsidered (i) Phonological Structure above the Level of the Segment  Representations Reconsidered (ii) Autosegmental Phonology  Phonological Weight  Optimality Theory  Issues in Optimality  Feature Specifications for Consonants  Sample Answers to Exercises  References  Subject Index  Language Index.","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51862508732759,"sku":"9780230573147","price":36.09,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/phonology-palgrave-modern-linguistics-9780230573147","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
