Syllable Structure and Dorsal Friction in German

Abstract
Phonemic phonological accounts of the fricatives [ç], [x] and [Ӽ] in German must either introduce an arbitrary piece of morphological information into the phonology, or set up a controversial phoneme of open juncture. An alternative account is proposed which avoids both of these problems. I provide a phonological analysis which employs an explicit syllable structure and a phonetic interpretation of this structure is given in terms of the exponency statements of a Firthian prosodic phonology.
