Coronal Sounds and Palatalization. An Analysis of English and Polish.

The present master thesis offers an overview of the approaches to palatalization within feature geometry in general, and a detailed analysis of the palatalization phenomena in English and Polish. In particular, it is argued that in order to account for the Polish data it is necessary to assume that front vowels are specified for both Coronal and [-back], and that this analysis is also compatible with the data from English.
