Predictability Affects Spoken Phonological Systems Indirectly
Language and Linguistics Compass, Volume 20, Issue 1, January/February 2026.ABSTRACT The last three decades have seen a large increase in attempts to explain phonetic and phonological patterns using information theoretic properties such as frequency and predictability. One recurring theme is the attempt to explain phonetic and phonological weakening as following directly from low information content. I argue that the actuation
