Description
Faroese Phonetics and Phonology
fills the need for a precise and thorough analysis of the Faroese language. It provides a comprehensive overview of Faroese phonology, covering standard language, dialectal variations, and historical changes. The volume offers a detailed description of Faroese phonetics and presents formal analyses of the active phonological mechanisms in synchrony.
This is the first reference book dedicated solely to Faroese phonology and phonetics. Existing scholarly literature on the subject leaves many areas unexplored. This volume aims to provide in-depth descriptions of dialect variation and a detailed discussion of the language's diachronic development from Old Norse to Faroese.
