Individuals, Communities, and Sound Change

The papers in this collection consider the role of individual differences in the actuation and spread of sound change. They explore how individual differences relate to community patterns; how they impact variation; and the degree to which they affect the initiation, phonologization, and propagation of change.

Guest Editors: James Kirby, Lauren Hall-Lew, & Patrick Honeybone
