Phonological Structure and Phonetic Form

Description

Phonological Structure and Phonetic Form brings together work from phonology, phonetics, speech science, electrical engineering, psycholinguistics and sociolinguistics. The chapters in this book are organised 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 is the third in the series Papers in Laboratory Phonology. The two previous volumes, like the conferences from which they were derived, have been influential in establishing Laboratory Phonology as a discipline in its own right. Phonological Structure and Phonetic Form will be equally important in making readers aware of the range of research relevant to questions of linguistic sound structure.

"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."
