PHONOLOGICAL THEORIES
Keywords:
phonology, constraints, speech sounds, linear string of segments, mentalistic approach, natural phonology, phonological patterns.Abstract
This is a critical review of two major phonological theories: linear natural phonology and the nonlinear optimality theory. Natural phonological theory asserts that phonological processes are phonetically based. Phonological error patterns help organize treatment targets and assess generalization. However, the natural phonology's explanation of speech sound learning in children does not attain the status of a scientific theory.
