On Deglottalization in Klamath

Lightner, Theodore M.

International Journal of American Linguistics, 42, 1, 14-16, Jan 76

Agrees with Kean's rules for deglottalization in Klamath: that two rules are necessary--sonorant deglottalization and obstruent deglottalization--and that the latter is applied after the former. Disagrees with the formation of the obstruent deglottalization rule regarding the quality of word boundary. (SCC)
