Drawing from insights in linguistic typology and synchronic theory, he makes two significant advances in our understanding of PIE phonology. First, by analyzing securely reconstructable consonant clusters at word’s edge, he devises a methodology which allows us to predict which types of consonant clusters could occur word-medially in PIE. Thus, a number of previously disconnected phonological rules can now be understood as being part of a conspiracy motivated by violations in syllable structure. Second, he uncovers evidence of morphological influence within the syllable, created by processes such as quantitative ablaut. These advances allow us to view PIE as a synchronic grammar, one which can be described by -- and contribute to -- modern linguistic theory.Brill's studies in Indo-European languages & linguistics ;Volume 15.Indo-European languagesSyllabicationIndo-European languagesPhonologyReconstruction (Linguistics)Indo-European languagesSyllabication.Indo-European languagesPhonology.Reconstruction (Linguistics)414Byrd Andrew Miles1979-1604521NL-LeKBNL-LeKBBOOK9910968712803321The Indo-European syllable4319572UNINA
