This is the first volume concerned with the phonological typology
of syllable and word languages, based on the model of a complex,
multi-layered and hierarchically structured phonological system.
The main typological claim is that the phonetic and phonological
make-up of a language depends on the relevance of the prosodic
categories. In previous research, the syllable and the phonological
word have already proved to be typologically important. The
contributions in this volume discuss theoretical questions and
address issues such as the variable structure of the phonological
word, the interplay between phonetics and phonology as well as the
effect of a language's phonological make-up on its morphology or
lexicon. The volume provides detailed synchronic and diachronic
analyses of (Non-)Indo-European languages which will serve as a
basis for further typological research.
