Template:Phonorule/doc

Streamlined sound change rule template

{{Phonorule|A|B|C}}

A → B ⧸ C

You can omit the second and last values. Ommitng the last value reults in an universal rule, ommiting the second too results in simple elision

{{Phonorule|A|B}}
{{Phonorule|A}}

A → B

A → ∅

You can also use the Multifeature template woth the option <code>|large=true</code> for complex rules.

{{Phonorule
| large = true
| {{Multifeature|+stop|+consonant|+alveolar}}
| [ɾ]
| {{Multifeature|+vowel|+stressed|}} ___ {{Multifeature|+vowel|-stressed|}}
}}

+stop +consonant +alveolar

→

[ɾ]

+vowel +stressed ___ +vowel -stressed

Or, my preferred way, just wrap everything in Multifeature, it looks better

{{Phonorule
| large = true
| {{Multifeature|+stop|+consonant|+alveolar}}
| {{Multifeature|ɾ}}
| {{Multifeature|+vowel|+stressed|}} ___ {{Multifeature|+vowel|-stressed|}}
}}

+stop +consonant +alveolar

→

ɾ

+vowel +stressed ___ +vowel -stressed
