The dependency relations within Xhosa phonological processesPodile, K. (Kholisa) 06 1900 (has links)
The dissertation examines mainly segmental assimilatory processes of Xhosa phonology
within the dependency framework. This model is a multi-faceted approach which involves
hierarchical organisation of features into larger constituents known as gestures.
The analysis includes an elementary historical background to the development of
phonological theory with emphasis on the shift from traditional linear approaches to modern
non-linear models, as well as a shift from derivational theories to representational
frameworks. An exploration of the phonetics/phonology interface through the application
of gestures is considered an advantage of using the dependency framework over other
theories of phonology.
The focus of the dissertation is the description of phonetically-motivated and
morphologically-motivated Xhosa phonological processes.
A brief exposition of the use of the dependency framework in non-assimilatory Xhosa
phonological processes is given as a possible recommendation in the conclusion of the dissertation. / Language Education, Arts and Culture / M.A. (African Languages)
