The Phonology of Two Central Chadic Languages (Publications in Linguistics (Sil and University of Texas)")

Smith coming to linguistics from classics and archaeology, and Gravina from mathematics, they have both worked with SIL in Cameroon since 1997, Smith with the Muyang and Gravina with the Mbuko. Smith examines basic phonology, morpho-phonology, and phrase-level phonology of Muyang. Then Gravina considers Mbuko from the perspectives of the syllable, contrastive units, the phonology of the word, tone, phrase-level phonology, and rhythmical phonology.
