| Citazioni | Dissimilation
Phonologically defined distributions may reflect differences of types of phonemes, as well as similarities. Dissimilations are much rarer than assimilations and usually involve noncontiguous phonemes. Any dissimilation may be regarded as complete, though one may desire to indicate degrees of dissimilation. |
