The Phonology of Swedish
Tomas Riad
This book presents a comprehensive, contrastive account of the phonological structures and characteristics of Swedish. After an introduction on the history of the language and its relation to other Scandinavian languages, the book is divided into parts dealing with segmental phonology, lower
prosodic phonology, stress and tone, morphology-phonology interactions, higher prosodic phonology, and intonation. The book concludes with concise accounts of regional variations in accent and the influence of phonology on poetry and orthography. Tomas Riad's approach is data-oriented and, insofar
as possible, theory-neutral. As well as making an important contribution to its subject, his book provides new insights into the nature of phonological change and the relation between morphology, phonology, and phonetics.
