Jun 19, 2012 at 14:05 | comment | added | kaleissin | "dominant" is probably a bad word choice in that WP article. Hmm. More frequent? More general? | |
Jun 19, 2012 at 14:01 | comment | added | Otavio Macedo | What happened to "In this context, is dominance assumed to stem from biological constraints (like some sounds are easier to produce than others) or is this not necessary for the definition of markedness?" You have asked two other questions that seem to be duplicates, but this one hasn't been asked. Why? | |

Jun 19, 2012 at 13:18 | comment | added | Tames | the dominant term will take place as a generic form (without definition of gender, for exemple) whenever the mark is not relevant to the context in question (e.g. "some wolves ate my sheep", it is not important if they were she-wolves or 'he'-wolves, if I mean to inform only what species of animals did it - wolves and not lions). The dominant term is more extense, therefore can be used in more situations, I'm not sure if this guarantees that it will be more frequent in speech. | |
Jun 19, 2012 at 13:03 | comment | added | Tames | a mark can be phonological or morphological/lexical, I believe you are pointing out only to the second case, right? | |
