Phonological syllabification in Danish once more: A propos Molbæk's paper

This paper contains an evaluation of Molbæk Hansen's critical discussion of my earlier syllabification principles of Danish phonology. A more recent version of the principles, which has been tested within the DANFON-project, is presented - although very sketchily - and Molbæk Hansen's counter-examples to the earlier principles are evaluated with respect to the DANFON-version. Particular attention is paid to the manifestation of short /a/, synchronically as well as diachronically

Grammatical boundaries in phonology

This paper1 is divided into two main parts: (1) on grammatical boundaries in generative phonology, including an overview of boundaries in the phonology of French, and (2) which concentrates on the evidence for grammatical boundaries, and where both French and Danish examples are discussed. This bipartition is mainly made for expository reasons, and there is a considerable overlapping in the contents of the two sections. &nbsp

On the phonological interpretation of the falling diphthongs in Danish

'Diphthong' is here taken to be a phonetic and not a phonological concept. The meaning of the term 'diphthong' is discussed in section 2, and the classification of (Danish) diphthongs into rising and falling in section 3.1. Section 3 contains proposals as to the phonological treatment of the falling diphthongs in Danish from several angles. In section 4, finally, we shall ask and try to answer the question: can 'diphthong' in any sense be considered a phonologically (i.e. functionally) relevant concept in Danish
