«Syllable-based Generalizations in English Phonology» is Daniel Kahn's study of English phonology (Garland Pub, 1980; 218 pp., in English).
Originally published in 1980, this study addresses the role of the syllable in generative grammar. Daniel Kahn argues that the syllable is necessary in phonological descriptions: he identifies phenomena that require analysis with syllabic structure and demonstrates that this approach outperforms other alternative solutions.
The work stems from Daniel Kahn's doctoral thesis at MIT (1976) and is part of the collection «Outstanding Dissertations in Linguistics»; includes bibliography (pp. 211-218).
Aimed at students of English language and linguistics, particularly those studying phonology within the framework of generative grammar.
