| Citazioni | [...] variation is common to all normal speakers of the language and is dependent on the phonetic conditions in which the fundamental sound ('point of pattern') occurs. [...] the mechanical English vocalic relation 'bad.bat' would in many languages be quite marked enough to indicate a relation of distinct points of the pattern [...] A 'place' is [...] found for a sound [...] as a true point in the pattern [...] in such a system because of a general feeling of its phonetic relationship resulting from all the specific phonetic relationships[...] to other sounds. |
