Choose Phonological Features (Natural Classes)

For natural classes that are defined by features, you choose phonological features as follows:

1. In the Navigation Pane, click Grammar, and then click Natural Classes.

2. In the Natural Classes pane, click the desired natural class.

3. In the Natural Classes (Features) pane, click the Phonological Features field, and then click the ellipsis button that appears.

   The Choose Phonological Features dialog box appears.

4. If necessary, configure the columns (click ) in the dialog box.

5. If a feature you need is not shown, click the link to open Phonological Features. There you can insert a phonological feature.

6. If the feature you need is shown, click it. Then, in the Value column, select +, - or a value you inserted. (<n/a> removes a selection.)

Repeat this step for each feature/value you want to appear in the Phonological Features field.

7. Click OK.

The feature/value or features/values appear in the Phonological Features field in square brackets, such as [son:+] or [son:+ cons:+].
