Alternations: The Vipers in Our Bosom

Üretici Dilbilimin başlangıcından itibaren, ses nöbetleşimleri, bir dilin özelliklerini tanımlayan sesbilgisel kurallara ve bu kuralların uygulandığı derin yapıya dair bilgi vermesi açısından oldukça önemli rol oynamıştır. Bu çalışma ses nöbetleşimlerini sesbilim kuramının açıklanması gereken en temel sorunu olarak almanın aslında bir dilde kabul edilir sözcük yapısının ne olduğunu açıklamayı hedefleyen sesbilim için sınırlamalardan yoksun modellemelere yol açtığını savunur.

Since the beginning of Generative Phonology alternations have played an important role as they were assumed to yield insights into the phonological rules characterizing a language as well as the underlying representations they operate on. This paper argues that taking them as the prime explicandum of phonological theory leads to unrestricted models that miss the point what phonology should be all about: Explaining what a well-formed word can look like in a given language.
