Popis: This chapter provides a detailed characterization of both articulatory and acoustic patterns of Romance palatals and their relevance to the goals of the book. While focusing on available data for sounds that are commonly found across the Romance-speaking world, this chapter also characterizes consonants whose emergence appear more restricted and/or for which articulatory and acoustic data do not abound in the Romance literature. Knowing the articulatory and acoustic characteristics of these sounds reveals itself as crucial to understanding the basic phonetic motivations for their diachronic pathways as well as their patterns of synchronic dialectal variation.
