The second part of this seminar paper will broach the issue of different phonological phenomena given in the text. This theoretical part of the written seminar paper will deal, first of all, with the allophones clear [l] and dark [ɫ], then the so called “happ Y-Tensing” will be presented, afterwards this paper will deal with the syllabic consonants and at last a distinction of so-called strong and weak forms will be given.
