Abstract

The notion of SYLLABLE CUT (Silbenschnitt), which was introduced and motivated in classical works by Sievers, Jespersen, Trubetzkoy, and others, has been discussed and developed recently in Germanic linguistics, including by Vennemann (1991), Maas and Tophinke (1991), Becker (1996, 1998), and Murray (2000). Along with the issue of tonal accents, syllable cut is also featured in a volume edited by Auer, Gilles, and Spiekermann (forthcoming).
