Having both a descriptive and a theoretical purpose, this book is the first full phonological description of Slovak, a language spoken by some four-and-a-half million people in Central and Eastern Europe. It is also a study of the theories of lexical, autosegmental, and prosodic phonology, with a particular emphasis on syllable structure. In a synthesis of these two aims, the author demonstrates how the theories can be integrated in a description of a single language.
