I think you're both wrong, and that rather you should be saying that you don't mind it at the phonological level but don't want it at the morphophonological level -- a position that I would then agree with. The phonemic status of the buffer vowel is evidenced by its realizational specification. It might better be thought of as the realization of an empty nucleus. I suppose that there is indeed also a rather extreme and unnatural analysis in which the buffer vowel is part of one of the nonprevocalic allophones of each consonant phoneme, and that its lack of realizational overlap with vowel phonemes is coincidental. --And. --=20 You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "= BPFK" group.
