 | | In this type of phonetic rule the object to the left of the arrow is a phonological segment input to a phonetics, and the environment is also a phonological description. | | | What this level must interface with is the input level of the phonetics, not its output or some intermediary stage. | | | It is definitely not the case that the observed output stands in a one-to-one relationship with the input; hence it is a mistake to take the output as a direct indicator of what is phonological. |

| | We claimed that this tendency was evidence that either (1) phonology is not categorical and "aspiration" is not a binary process or (2) that phonology is categorical but phonetics does not feed directly from the output of phonology without being able to see any of the original input to the phonology. | | | The results propose the problem of the split view of systems of Phonology and Phonetics: the source of phonetics is not restricted to the output from phonology but comes from underlying representation. | | | That is important for the discussion of section 4 about discrete phonetic details in grammar. |

| | The theoretical objectives include the definition of criteria on which phonetic and phonological typologies can be based, the analysis of the geographical distribution of dialect features with respect to traditional dialectological problems (e.g., are transitions between dialects abrupt or continuous?), and sociolinguistically oriented problems such as levelling tendencies in different age groups and sexes. | | | These criteria, which are distributional, semantic and phonetic, now form the cornerstones of a formal machinery designed to reduce language to a minimal set of elementary units. | | | Most phonetic analyses of languages other than Swedish referred to in this summary have been initiated on the basis of the IRIS database. |
