Excerpt from Fundamentals of Language
When a quarter of a century separates us from the Prague International Conference, which broke the ground for general phonology. It is appropriate to survey the main problems of this discipline in its present stage. On the other hand, it was tempting to explore, forty years after the publication of Saussure's Cours with its radical distinction between the syntagmatic and as sociative plane of language, what has been and can be drawn from this fundamental dichotomy.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of phonology, exploring how languages utilize sounds to create meaning. The author takes us on a journey through the history of this linguistic discipline, tracing its roots back to ancient Sanskrit and Greek thinkers. We learn about the fundamental building blocks of language ââ â distinctive features ââ â and how they combine to form syllables and ultimately, words. The author sheds light on the crucial role of these features in differentiating meaning, highlighting their importance in both speech production and comprehension. The book goes beyond simply identifying these features, delving into their intricate classifications and interrelationships. We discover the fascinating interplay between prosodic features like stress and length, and inherent features like voicing and nasality. By examining the development of speech in infants and the breakdown of language in aphasia, the author uncovers universal laws governing the organization of sounds in languages. This leads to a deeper understanding of the shared principles that underpin human communication across diverse cultures. Ultimately, this book reveals the remarkable complexity and elegance of the sound system of language, offering profound insights into the very essence of how we communicate. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
