Abstract
Kohler (1966a, 1966b: 346–348) asks whether the syllable is a phonological universal, and concludes negatively.1 The way to support such a conclusion is not difficult to imagine: the sort of specific objections to the syllable which Kohler raises would, if well-founded, be sufficient to prove his case.Keywords
