Phonological Structure and Phonetic Form

Phonological Structure and Phonetic Form

Patricia A. Keating
February 2006
Available
Paperback
9780521024082

    Phonological Structure and Phonetic Form brings together work from phonology, phonetics, speech science, electrical engineering, psycho- and sociolinguistics. The chapters are organized in four topical sections. The first is concerned with stress and intonation; the second with syllable structure and phonological theory; the third with phonological features; and the fourth with "phonetic output." This volume will be important in making readers aware of the range of research relevant to questions of linguistic sound structure.

    • Third of volumes proceeding from international conferences in laboratory phonology
    • Keating is author of international reputation

    Reviews & endorsements

    "Phonological Structure and Phonetic Form is highly recommended for researchers and students alike. It contributes in a positive way to the increasingly healthy 'interface' between phonteics and phonology, and like its predecessors in the series, it will play a significant role in the rise of laboratory phonology as a resepcted discipline." Stephen Lambacher, M.A., The Phonetician
