Aspiration of plosives depends on the distribution of sounds in words. i.e. initial/mid / final The implementation of the palatal /c/ and the velar /k/ depends on the adjacent segment vowel. Kitchen cut Analysis reveals the following two rules: 1. /k/ and /g/ are velar except when followed by a front vowel 2. Voiceless stops are aspirated in initial positions and un-aspirated elsewhere.

Any valid system of analysis should be economical It should account for universal combinations of phonetic segments. Accordingly, many redundancy rules would be eliminated. eg. Oral/Nasal/Voiced It should allow us to group together phonological (sound) segments that behave similarly or differently in all the languages of the world. Vowels and Consonants
