Description

Covering the entire history of generative phonology, from the Sound Pattern of English model to the Optimality Theory framework in use today, Phonology includes the latest developments in analytical and theoretical aspects of the subject. This fully revised and updated edition: - provides a phonetics revision chapter for students to refresh their knowledge of phonetics - includes brand new chapters on Phonological Weight and Optimality Theory, and incorporates new material on Moraic Theory - contains classroom exercises drawn from a wide variety of languages, along with sample answers and suggestions for further reading Whether you are new to the field or simply want to take your studies further, Phonology will help you to develop a complete understanding of this important branch of linguistics. Full answer keys to the book's exercises are available to lecturers on the Palgrave Modern Linguistics series companion website at www.palgrave.com/language/pml>

This comprehensive textbook is an excellent introduction to the field of phonology. The material is logically and incrementally presented, and wonderfully illustrated with original linguistic data and exercises. The reader will gain a good understanding of mainstream phonology in historical context, and will also be introduced to alternative frameworks.' - Carrie Dyck, Associate Professor of Linguistics, Memorial University of Newfoundland, Canada 'This second edition is worth careful consideration by any phonology instructor. It covers both the essentials of generative phonology and more advanced topics in a clear, user-friendly manner, while regularly prompting the reader to consider important challenges to each theoretical framework as it is presented. A number of useful and well-executed instructional aids are provided, especially the strong selection of exercises.' - Ian Clayton, University of Nevado, Reno

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
