Vowel Changes of Mazatec
The fundamentals of particle phonology
Particle phonology has evolved from a dissatisfaction that I experienced working within the current theoretical and notational framework of generative phonology. I had been looking at historical processes affecting vowels and diphthongs. In trying to describe the kinds of changes undergone by these entities, I was particularly frustrated by the inability of the standard notation to characterise in any enlightening way the internal structure of vo…
The Rhythmic Nature of English Word Accentuation
English word stress is analysed in terms of rhythm—of alternating strong (S) and weak (W) syllables. A set of S-placement rules assigns S's to words. A set of rhythmic constraints defines well-formed configurations of S's and W's. The interaction of rules and constraints determines the accentual patterns of most words, whether simple or morphologically complex. The analysis accounts for all ‘stress shifts’ in morphologically related forms (e.g. s…

The Hierarchy for the Deletion of French 'E Muet
The Phoneme Revisited
The phoneme as a viable phonological unit for capturing relevant surface contrasts has been rejected within generative phonology. However, certain diachronic and synchronic effects can only be explained in terms of the phoneme. The historical phenomena of denasalization in French, depalatalization in Rumanian, delabialization in Romance, palatalization and labialization in Nupe, and palatalization in Japanese are due to surface contrast rather th…

On the Non-Uniqueness of Phonological Representations
The problem of non-unique phonological representations is examined in its historical context. The discussion treats two types of phonological representations: the traditional phonemic representations and the underlying representations of generative phonology. Both systems allow for non-unique representations. In phonemics, a resolution of this problem was found within the distinctive-feature framework, whereas in generative phonology, unique repr…

La Linguistique Synchronique
The Morphophonemics of the French Verb
This limited treatment of French verb morphology is intended to exemplify the principles of generative phonology. The finite verb is represented as a sequence of morphemes: stem (+ conjugation vowel) + tense marker + person ending. For each morpheme there is a unique underlying phonological representation, exhibiting structural regularities which are not overtly marked at the phonetic level. A sequence of morphemes thus represented is then subjec…
