... that sound-change is an ‘emergent’, processual phenomenon. The chapter then discusses different approaches to phonology (taxonomic-phonemic, generative/lexical, and natural and evolutionary phonology), and shows how all these approaches can be harnessed for the purposes of this book. The chapter concludes...

... to a postvocalic voicing pattern and that Evolutionary Phonology is consequently right on target in postulating that UG lacks any constraints forbidding this pattern. Kiparsky (2006) in turn rejects all these examples. Here we review the ones in which further 175 details, parallels, or corrections seem worth...

... of phonetic cues associated with domain structure, cues which can include differences in segment length, pitch accent, and degree of coarticulation. Translating this phenomenon into Evolutionary Phonology terms, we could hypothesis a point in the history of Korean at which a discrepancy arose between...

... consonants, with the diachronic pathways connecting the input and output phonetic forms, and with models of sound change (e.g., Evolutionary Phonology, the Neogrammarian’s articulatory model, Ohala’s acoustic equivalence model). The need to use articulatory and acoustic data for ascertaining the causes...
