Phonetically based phonology

---

Phonetically Based Phonology is centered around the hypothesis that phonologies
are determined by phonetic principles; that is, phonetic patterns involving
ease of articulation and perception are expressed linguistically as grammatical
constraints. This book brings together a team of leading scholars to provide
wide-ranging study of phonetically based phonology. It investigates the role of
phonetics in many phonological phenomena – such as assimilation, vowel reduction,
vowel harmony, syllable weight, contour tone distribution, metathesis,
lenition, sonority sequencing, and the Obligatory Contour Principle (OCP) –
exploring in particular the phonetic bases of phonological markedness in these
key areas
