  5. R-1121 · Cross-field connection · directed

    Archiphoneme → Allophony

    Meaning of the relation type
    Die Verbindung überschreitet einen fachlichen Kontinent. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    In Trubetzkoy’s model, an archiphoneme represents the distinctive features shared by phonemes whose opposition is neutralised in a particular position. Allophony concerns how one phoneme is realised in different environments. The comparison therefore starts by asking whether there is a contrast elsewhere that ceases to distinguish forms in the position at issue.

  6. R-1122 · Cross-field connection · directed

    Allophony → Archiphoneme

    Meaning of the relation type
    Die Verbindung überschreitet einen fachlichen Kontinent. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Allophones are different realisations of one phoneme. Neutralisation occurs when a contrast that operates elsewhere is lost in a particular position. Trubetzkoy’s archiphoneme is a model-specific analysis of that second pattern.
