Syllable Weight: Phonetics, Phonology, Typology
ISBN: 9780415861519 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 428 str.

Drawing on a typological survey of 400 languages, it is shown that the traditional conception that languages are internally consistent in their weight criteria across weight-based processes is not corroborated by the cross-linguistic survey.
