A theory of phonological features / San Duanmu.

This title outlines a system of phonological features that is minimally sufficient to distinguish all consonants and vowels in the languages of the world. It focuses on a straightforward procedure to interpret empirical data and reveals a surprisingly simple feature system whereby a two-way contrast...
