| dc.description.abstract | This paper attempts to describe the sequence structure of vowel segments in
Kiswahili. It proposes to establish a distinction between two main types of
redundancy rules and their implications for the study of Kiswahili phonology.
The paper argues against the application of the concept of long and short
vowels to the analysis of Kiswahili. An argument is also advanced for the
importance of recognizing two types of epenthesis in Kiswahili: InterLanguage
and Intra-Language epenthesis. This analysis is carried out within
the framework of Generative Phonology as proposed by Chomsky & Halle
(1968). | en_US |
