Title: writing rules in phonology - french
Post by: katie333 on March 17, 2014, 06:09:10 AM

hi
I am wondering if there is a site that would help with writing phonological rules.

I don't know how to write a rule that means in an open syllable.  Closed I think would be $?
Is this correct?

Just learning so could use the help!
Thank you!

It varies based on theory/textbook/instructor. We can't easily answer this for you in general. What is important is of course getting the rule right. But check with your instructor to see about the expected notation.
