Autosegmental Phonology in Phonetics and Phonology

Autosegmental Phonology in Phonetics and Phonology This video explains the concept of Autosegmental Phonology, a modern theory in phonetics and phonology introduced by John Goldsmith during the 1970s. The lesson describes how phonological features such as tone, stress, nasality, and vowel harmony can spread independently across multiple sounds instead of following a simple linear pattern. Viewers learn about tone spreading, vowel harmony, long-distance sound relations, tiers, association lines, and the role of autosegments in language analysis. The video also highlights how this theory supports linguistic research, tonal language analysis, and computational linguistics through clear definitions, examples, and simplified explanations suitable for beginners in phonology.
