"At first acoustics attributed to the different sounds only a limited number of characteristic features."

First

"Instead of following one another the sounds overlap; a sound which is acoustically perceived as coming after another one can be articulated simultaneously with the latter or even in part before it."

Sound

"Speech sounds cannot be understood, delimited, classified and explained except in the light of the tasks which they perform in language."

Language

"Of course, we have known for a long time that a word, like any verbal sign, is a unity of two components."

Time

"It is once again the vexing problem of identity within variety; without a solution to this disturbing problem there can be no system, no classification."

Identity

"A new era in the physiological investigation of linguistic sounds was opened up by X-ray photography."

Investigation

"Semantics, or the study of meaning, remained undeveloped, while phonetics made rapid progress and even came to occupy the central place in the scientific study of language."

Progress

"Now the identification of individual sounds by phonetic observation is an artificial way of proceeding."
