Revision as of 04:29, 11 February 2007

I have rewritten the entire article because I felt the former article contained little to no information about distinctive features. The phonetics topics it did discuss are better placed in their respective articles. In the future I would like to expand the article now in place by including information on such topics as redundancy, nonspecification, natural classes as motivators for distinctive features. Please, feel free to start! (I'll catch up.) Jobber 21:21, 8 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Should manner of articulation and place of articulation be "under" this article? Ie, is this the "all about articulation" article? Discussion in Talk:Vowel#Integration of articulation articles. 66.30.119.55 06:41, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think so. Distinctive features aren't only about place and manner of articulation. User:Angr 07:33, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Features in application

What would be nice in this article would be to follow the feature descriptions with some feature charts and possible some descriptions of individual segments.

Vowel length

Hi, this article doesn't explain how vowel length can be a distinctive feature. --Kjoonlee 04:29, 11 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
