Phonology II

This course continues the department's introduction to phonology with special emphasis on the presumed universal traits of syllable and sound structures. The most current models of phonological analysis will be used. The relationship between phonological form and its phonetic realization is central to the coursework.

The objective is to give the students insight in the use of phonological models, so that they can analyse phonological data from their native language in accordance with the chosen model.
