Modern Greek is an Indo-European language spoken in Greece. Examine the sounds [x], [k], [c], and [c] in the following data. [k] represents a voiceless velar stop, [x] a voiceless velar fricative, [c] a voiceless palatal fricative, and [c] a voiceless palatal stop. Which of these sounds are in contrastive distribution, and which are in complementary distribution? State the distribution of the allophones a. [kano] 'do' b. [xano] 'lose' c. [cinol 'pour' d. [cino] 'move' e. [kali ' charms' f. [xali] plight' g. [çeli] 'eel' h. [ceri] 'candle" i. [çeri] hand' j. [kori] daughter' k.[xoril fdances' 1. xrima] 'money' m. [krima] 'shame' n. [xuftal handful o.[kufeta] bonbons p. [cina] goose' q. [cina] 'china' In order to answer this question, do provide the columns of the environments for the different sounds and just write down your verdict regarding their phonemic status -no extra explanations are needed. If they are allophones of the same phoneme, state the rule that describes which environments each sound is found in - and (with another rule) which environments the other sounds are found in. Write the rules using the "/X/ -> [Z]/ etc." notation. For formulating your rules, use the three articulatory dimensions of consonants (place, manner, voice) and vowels (place, height, roundness). Also, make generalisations using natural classes: for instance, use a symbol like "Cvelac (instead of providing all velar consonants within curly brackets, e.g. (x, y, z.,..).
