Abstract

This chapter considers at what stage of planning Foreign Accent Syndrome (FAS) takes its toll in speech production. Consideration of the scientific literature leads to the conclusion that FAS is a post-phonological process that has an effect at the stage of phonetic outputting in the speech production planning.
