Index. 330 $aThis book analyzes 153 languages from a large variety of families to establish a previously unexplored relationship between phonetically conditioned sound changes such as lenitions and functional (meaning maintenance related) considerations. Carefully collecting numerous inventories of consonants, this collection is likely to become an important resource for future linguistics research. By distinguishing between phonetic and phonological neutralization, and showing that the first does not necessarily result in the second, Naomi Gurevich uncovers previously unexplored and often surprising trend 410 0$aOutstanding dissertations in linguistics. 606 $aPhonetics 606 $aMutation (Phonetics) 606 $aLinguistic change 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aPhonetics. 615 0$aMutation (Phonetics) 615 0$aLinguistic change. 676 $a414/.8 700 $aGurevich$b Naomi$f1966,$0923760 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451552103321 996 $aLenition and contrast$92073093 997 $aUNINA
