前言
There are about 6000 languages in the world today.Almost certainly,no two of tham have the same sound structure:they vary widely in the number of consonants and VOW els they have,in their use of tonal contrasts,in their stress patterns,in the shape of their syllables,and so on.At the same time,all these languages show striking similarities in the way they structure their sound systems.Phonology is a thriving field of linguistic research that tries to understand the structure behind these systems.How do these similarities arise?Or again,why is there so much variation?How is our knowledge of the pronunciation of our language represented in our brain?How can we describe thepronunciation of a language?What do people do when they play language games?Why do loanwords often sound so totally different from the way they are pronounced in the donor language?These and many other questions are dealt with in this book.In our dis. cussion,we have tried to sketch the development of scientific thinking about the SOUnd structure of languages and to take an unbiased view of the cognitive or physiological nature of the explanations.We hope we have succeeded in this task in at least some places in the book.and have got close enough to this ideal for it to serve as a reliable and relevant introduction to an important and exciting field. An understanding of phonological theory is impossible without at least some knowledge of the way speech is produced.Chapter 1 gives the basics of phonetics.It is a background introductory chapter and so,unlike the other chapters,does not contain exercises. The exercises are numbered consecutively through the book.A key is provided at the back. In the interest of our students,we have not followed the otherwise commendable practice of reporting data from the literature in their original transcriptions、but have used International Phonetic Alphabet(IPA)transcriptions(see P.16)throughout.We hope that not too much was lost in these translations. This book reflects the thoughts and discoveries of many phonologists.We have learnt to appreciate the value and implications of these theoretical positions not only by reading their publications,but also by attending their classes and discussing the issues with them.Needless to say,our debt to them is inestimable.However,we have not iust attempted to present the materialin a coherent and accessible fashion,but have at times included original data and analysas.
