Abstract

The paper upholds the existence of a phonological unit smaller than the phoneme, serving as the component of the latter. This is the linguistic correlate of articulatory movements together with their auditory reflexes, i.e. Baudouin de Courtenay’ kinakeme. The acceptance of the kinakeme as the ultimate phonological unit makes the notion of distinctive phonemic features redundant in linguistic theory. The kinakemes of any given language form a paradigmatic system and combine syntagmatically in phonemes.
