This book presents a comprehensive, contrastive account of the
phonological structures and characteristics of Swedish. After an
introduction on the history of the language and its relation to
other Scandinavian languages, the book is divided into parts
dealing with segmental phonology, lower prosodic phonology, stress
and tone, morphology-phonology interactions, higher prosodic
phonology, and intonation. The book concludes with concise accounts
of phonotactics and the relationship between phonology and
orthography. Tomas Riad's approach is data-oriented and, insofar as
possible, theory-neutral. As well as making an important
contribution to its subject, his book provides new insights into
how morphology largely determines the distribution of stress in a
Germanic language, and how tonal accent may signal wellformedness
in word formation.
