Clicks, elements and concurrency

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article

Abstract

Khoisan languages have always posed a challenge to formal phonology in the generative tradition, as their very large apparent inventories require an array of features used nowhere else. I recently (Bradfield 2014) proposed a solution to this in terms of 'concurrent phonemes'. In this article, I look at Khoisan from the point of view of non-linear phonology, and investigate the application of the concurrent phoneme in this framework.
