Languages in the survey; Index of languages; Index of subjects and termsThis monograph proposes a new interpretation of the intrasegmental structure of consonants and provides the first systematic intra- and cross-linguistic study of consonant prevocalization. The proposed model represents consonants as inherently bigestural and makes strong predictions that are automatically relevant to phonological theory at both the diachronic and synchronic levels, and also to the phonetics of articulatory evolution. It also clearly demonstrates that a wide generalization of the notion of consonant prevocalization provides a uniform account for many well-known processes generaAmsterdam studies in the theory and history of linguistic science.Series IV,Current issues in linguistic theory ;312.ConsonantsGrammar, Comparative and generalPhonologyVowelsElectronic books.Consonants.Grammar, Comparative and generalPhonology.Vowels.414Operstein Natalie925542MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910459143403321Consonant structure and prevocalization2078163UNINA
