Citazioni

The flow of sounds recognized by the ear, or the succession of vibrations recorded on some instrument, is represented by a succession of segments […], which may be devided into simultaneous components […]. This is done in such a way as to obtain successive (segmental) and simultaneous (suprasegmental) parts each one of which is independent of the others […] in its occurrence within utterances (over a relatively short stretch of speech).
