TextSeries: Studies in Laboratory PhonologyPublisher: Language Science Press, Description: 1 online resource (1 p.)ISBN: 9783961101887Subject(s): Language Arts & Disciplines / Linguistics | Language artsGenre/Form: Electronic books.Online resources: View this content on Open Research Library. Summary: In English, phonological double consonants only occur across morphological boundaries, for example, in affixation (e.g. in unnatural, innumerous). There are two possibilities for the phonetic realization of these morphological geminates: Either the phonological double is realized with a longer duration than a phonological singleton (gemination), or it is of the same duration as a singleton consonant (degemination).
