Abstract

Abstract : A phonological rules system has been implemented as a language extension of SDC INFIX LISP. The system can be used in two modes: as an interactive rule tester, and as a library of functions with other LISP programs. The key language capabilities are: definitions of phonological rules; definitions of ordered rule application; definitions of unordered rule application, definitions of nondeterministic rule application; lexicon definitions; sub-lexicon definitions; and multiple forms for words in the lexicon. The key system capabilities and features are: ability to edit and recompile all definitions; ability to output symbolics to a terminal, printer, or disk file in a format that allows recompilation; ability to selectively test a rule or group of rules against a single form, a lexicon entry, a sub-lexicon, or the entire lexicon; and all phonological rule definitions and all rule applying subr definitions are compiled rather than interpreted.
