Document Summary
We refer to p t k as a class easily. Instead of refereing to individuals we refere to them on commonalities. These assumptions are not shared by everyone but most agree on this. Some fetures are not important - say tention, vocal tract highness, etc. Distinctive features should pick out those aspescts that matter for phonology. Have to have enough distinctive features to ddistinguish all sounds, all constrastive properties of a language. There might be some disagreement on this one. W -> u wes on onset, occurs where consonants occur. To dinstigush glides from vowel we use +/- syllabic. Obstruents don"t have a class they are - sonorants. Instead of +/- syllabic refer to as c. v. Laterlas - might be classified as + continuent. There is no - labial its either there or not. Wide body tongue - dental and postalveolar - wide surface. Alveolar and retroflex uses tongue tip - apical.
