Document Summary
Ex: alternation: a phonological pattern in which an underlying form has different surface forms based on its phonological context. In english, the surface representations, of the plural marker alternate. There are 3 alternants, [- z], [-s] and the underlying form, [-z]. /-z/ -> [-voice] / voiced c: underlying representation: an underlying representation can be defined as an abstract mental representation of a linguistic unit, alternant, rule, target, epenthesis, natural class, sonorant, sibilant, neutralization, assimilation, spirantization/ frication, palatalization: Chapter 3 : insertion, deletion, cluster reduction, hypothesis testing: Chapter 4 : vowel harmony, transparency, opacity, abstractness, advanced tongue root (atr), height-dependent harmony, roundness harmony, dissimilation, sample derivation: learn 15 (bolded) **here the rhotic /r/ represents a voiced alveolar approximant, not a trill (which i was unable to locate on word) This dataset shows the alternation of the phonemes r and l, a denominative adjectivizer. It is evident that /-l/ is the underlying representation, while [-l] is an alternate.
