Abstract
The phonological analysis of phonemes as segments including consonants and their allophones, consonant clusters, and vowels with their allophones that may work in complementary distribution or in free variation with each other are tackled in this paper beside sounds in context to show how sounds produced in rapid connected speech reveal affection to each other producing utterances colored by assimilation, elision, and intrusion. The paper aims to show the different sub-types of these phonological processes such as coalescent assimilation, syncopic elision, and epenthetic intrusion. The paper is a reprint of an edited chapter of an M.A. thesis entitled '' A Phonological Analysis of Segmental Phonemes in Standard English and Hit Iraqi Arabic '' to be presented in confirming with the requirements for an M.A. degree.
Highlights
This paper deals with sounds as segments that constitute the smallest parts of an uttered word and may work in complimentary distribution or in free variation for each sound segment has varying allophones
It tackles sounds in context, namely; assimilation which is divided to three sub groupings according to direction of influence : progressive, regressive, and coalescent; elision that has three sub groupings according to the position of the elided segment: aphaeresis, syncope, and apocope; intrusion is subdivided to three groups according to the position of the inserted segment: prothesis, epenthesis, and anaptyxis
