Citazioni

The phonetic pattern of a language is not invariable, but it changes far less readily than the sounds that compose it.
- Sapir (1921), Pag. 186

The relation between phonetic pattern and individual sound is roughly parallel to that which obtains between the morphological type of a language and one of its specific morphological features.
- Sapir (1921), Pag. 187
