Abstract

One of the fundamental discoveries of modern linnguistics as a result of the advanced study of the phonological aspect of human speech is the fact that phonological segments or phonemes are not the ultima te constituents of phonological analysis, but factor into smaller, simultaneous properties of features. This paper is an attempt to give an overview of how the theory of distinctive features has developed over the past decades. The problem of linear phonological representation of SPE is also discussed and two models of multi-tiered feature representations are shown as a possible solution to the conceptual problems raised by linear phonological representation.
