From Jazz" and Rap" to Dzhaz" and Rep" : Phonological Adaptation of English Loanwords in Russian, Hardback Book

From Jazz" and Rap" to Dzhaz" and Rep" : Phonological Adaptation of English Loanwords in Russian Hardback

Part of the Sounds - Meaning - Communication series

Hardback

Description

The book provides a significant insight into the complex process of English loanword adaptation in Russian.

It is based on an in-depth analysis and comparison of a rich body of experimental data on the adaptation of both established and online loans of those English sounds absent from Russian phonemic inventory.

The analysis is couched within the Optimality-Theoretic framework.

The uncovered patterns offer valuable contribution to the ongoing debate on loanword phonology.
