Unit Description

The unit introduces students to the study of the behaviour of sound systems in languages, within mainstream (generative) phonological theory. We look at some recurrent problems in phonology in a range of languages, at the theories that have been proposed to explain them, and critically assess their implications for formal models of grammar.
