商品簡介
Catering to the increasing research interest in the major languages that originated in the Iberian peninsula: Basque, Catalan, Galician, Portuguese, and Spanish, this volume expands upon classical issues in this field. The number of expert papers corresponds approximately to the primacy of the language (i.e., Spanish warrants seven analyses to two for Basque). Attention in phonology still centers on stress assignment; other analyses consider apocope, epenthesis, intonation, distribution of rhotics, focus, pluralization, prosody, de/palatalization, the imperative paradigm, spirantization, and phonological variability. Each language section is organized around an introduction, theoretical framework, structural and usage specifics, conclusions, and references. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
