ROMAN JACKOBSON CONTRIBUTION TO GENERATIVE PHONOLOGY

- The distinctive features theory, which describes speech sounds in terms of


their phonological properties.

- The phonological hierarchy, which organizes phonological elements into a


hierarchy of levels.

- The markedness principle, which states that some elements are more marked
than others.

- The privative model, which explains phonological contrasts in terms of the


presence or absence of features.

- The structuralist approach to phonology, which emphasizes the structural


relationships between elements.

- The theory of binary distinctive features, which states that all phonological
elements can be described in terms of two opposing values.

- The theory of prosodic features, which suggests that certain features are
related to the prosodic organization of language.

- The theory of moraic structure, which states that syllables are composed of
moras rather than segments.

- The theory of distinctive feature geometry, which describes how features are
organized in a hierarchical structure.

HALLE AND ROMAN JACKSON'S CONTRIBUTION TO GENERATIVE PHONOLOGY

- The theory of distinctive features, which forms the basis for their approach to
phonology.

- The SPE (Sound Patterns of English) model, which provides a detailed


description of the phonology of English.

- The concept of rules, which are the basic units of description in their theory.
- The concept of phonological universals, which are the general principles that
apply to all languages.

- The concept of levels of representation, which is a way of representing the


organization of language.

- The concept of rule ordering, which determines the order in which rules apply.

- The concept of surface and underlying representations, which are different


levels of representation in the theory.

- The concept of phonological markedness, which is a way of classifying different


features.

- The concept of prosodic categories, which are used to describe the structure of
words and sentences.

NOAM CHOMSKY AND HALLE CONTRIBUTION TO GENERATIVE PHONOLOGY

- The theory of transformational grammar, which is the basis for their approach
to phonology.

- The concept of a generative grammar, which is a formal system for describing a


language.

- The concept of surface and deep structures, which are different levels of
representation in the theory.

- The concept of rules and rule schemata, which are used to describe the
structure of language.

- The concept of a universal grammar, which is a set of universal principles that


underlie all languages.

- The concept of underspecification, which is the idea that certain features are
not explicitly represented in the phonological representation.
- The concept of feature geometry, which is a way of organizing features into
hierarchical structures.

- The concept of prosodic constituency, which is a way of organizing words into


prosodic units.

- The concept of natural classes, which is a way of grouping together similar


features.
