<p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''Allophony''' is the phenomenon that a [[phoneme]] has different (context-dependent) variants. The different variants are called allophones. <br />
<br />
===Example===<br />
In English [t<sup>h</sup>] in ''tin'', [?t] in ''cat'' and [t] in [[stop]] are allophones of the [[phoneme]] /t/. <br />
<br />
===Comments===<br />
Syllable-initially the [[phoneme]] is pronounced differently than in medial or in final position. The differences between the allophones can be expressed by [[phonological rule]]s. <br />
