The Phonetics of Derived Words in English

Viac o knihe

The book explores the relationship between morphological structure and phonetic detail, addressing two key challenges. It examines the inconsistent empirical effects of various predictors and delves into theoretical questions regarding the origins of morpho-phonetic effects. The discussion considers whether speakers decompose words into morphemes or if these effects can arise from non-decompositional structures, providing insights into the complexities of language processing and phonetics.
