Integrational Linguistics (IL), developed by the German linguist Hans-Heinrich Lieb and others, is an approach to linguistics that integrates linguistic descriptions, construed as adeclarativea theories, with a detailed theory of language that covers all classical areas of linguistics, from phonology to sentence semantics, and takes linguistic variation, both synchronic and diachronic, fully into account. The aim of this book is to demonstrate how some controversial issues in language description are resolved in Integrational Linguistics. The four essays united here cover nearly all levels of language systems: phonetics and phonology (aThe Case for Two-Level Phonologya by Hans-Heinrich Lieb, on German obstruent tensing and French nasal alternation), morphology (aForm and Function of Verbal Ablaut in Contemporary Standard Germana by Bernd Wiese), morphology and syntax (aInflectional Units and Their Effectsa by Sebastian Drude, on the person system in GuaranAs), and syntax and sentence semantics (aTopic Integrationa by Andreas Nolda, on asplit topicalizationa in German).... 186 [aCode Formation] 76 avoiced 141 avoiceless 114a117, 136, 140, 141 consonant alternation 88a93 ... 44, 45, 67 apophonic path 132 apophony 109, see also ablaut application condition 15 archiphoneme 43, 66 article morph 84anbsp;...
