This course will offer an in-depth study of Phonology. We will first refresh basic phonetic notions, and then investigate distinctive feature theory, evidence for underlying representations, theories of derivation, the structure of the lexicon, prosodic notions such as the syllable and the foot, underspecification, constraint-based theories, stress assignment and the role of prosody in morphology. In the course there will be a strong emphasis on doing a wide range of exercises.
