dc.description.abstractAn analysis of two interrelated phonological processes, lenition and glottalization, which occur in the Nootka language, is presented. Rules which account for these two processes are posited, and are justified by alternations, other phonological rules and constraints in the language (specifically Port Alberni Nootka as spoken around 1910). Possible exceptions to the lenition and glottalization rules are accounted for by the positing of different underlying forms. Other rules (for example, vowel elision) needed to derive the spoken or surface form of words discussed in the thesis are also formulated. All phonological rules are reviewed and ordered.en_US
