Phonological classes/ praty ā h ā ras Phonological classes are denoted by praty ā h ā ras. E.g., the praty ā h ā ra iC denotes the set of segments in the continuous sequence starting with i and ending with au , the last element before the anubandha C. 2 Wiebke Petersen ICCS 2005

Minimality criteria 1. The length of the whole list is minimal. 2. The length of the sublist of the anubandhas is minimal and the length of the whole list is as short as possible. 3. The length of the sublist of the sounds is minimal and the length of the whole list is as short as possible. 2 Wiebke Petersen ICCS 2005
