Course
Course 7.5 credits • LINC13
In this course the student will get introduced to general principles and parameters which characterise feasible phonetic systems in human languages.
Principles which control phonological representations such as sound categorisation, lexical contrast and restrictions on phonetic sound sequences are studied.
The student will also discover principles which are responsible for the formation of phonological representations.
Data from various languages and language processing research is used to illustrate how sound structures – segmental and prosodic – are represented phonologically.
Practical exercises in phonological analysis make up a large part of the course.
