Contents:

Cover; Half-title; Title; Copyright; Contents; Contributors; Abbreviations; 1 Introduction: the phonetic bases of phonological Markedness; 2 A review of perceptual cues and cue robustness; 3 Place assimilation; 4 The typology of rounding harmony; 5 The evolution of metathesis; 6 The role of contrast-specific and language-specific phonetics in contour tone distribution; 7 Vowel reduction; 8 Contrast and perceptual distinctiveness; 9 Syllable weight; 10 Consonant lenition; 11 Language processing and segmental OCP effects; Index.

Summary: Phonetically based phonology is centered around the hypothesis that phonologies of languages are determined by phonetic principles; that is, phonetic patterns involving ease of articulation and perception are expressed linguistically as grammatical constraints. This book provides a wide-ranging study of phonetically-based phonology, investigating the role of phonetics in many phonological phenomena.
