Abstract
Whereas the discussion in the previous chapter focussed on morphological aspects, the present chapter will review in detail previous approaches to the phonological and, in particular, the prosodic characteristics of truncatory processes in English. Based on the desiderata, both empirical and theoretical, that will be shown to characterise the state of research, I will provide an outline of the central proposal of this book.
