XIV

Evolutionary Phonology is: an approach——to phonology and historical linguistics, based on the: idea that recurrent synchronic sound patterns, if not inherited from the——mother tongue, are the "result of recurrent sound changes," while rare patterns are the product of rare changes. Or a combination of independent changes.
