Artikulu honen helburu da Hualdek fonologiari egindako ekarpen itzela ospatzea. D. Dinnsenek Current approaches to phonological theory argitaratu eta gutxira, biok ia batera abiatzea fonologian izan nuen lehen bultzada fonologia egiteko modu desberdinez pentsatzen hasteko. Bide teoriko desberdinak aukeratu genituen euskal fonologia analizatzeko. Hemen garrantzizkotzat jotzen ditudan David Stamperen Fonologia Naturalaren funtsezko ideien laburbilduma bat eskain-tzen da.
This paper intends to be a celebration of Hualde’s great contribution to phonol-ogy. Our almost simultaneous beginning in the field, shortly after the publication of Current ap-proaches to phonological theory by D. Dinnsen, is the starting push to reflect about different ways to do phonology. We chose different theoretical paths for our work on Basque. I offer here a summary of some of the fundamental ideas of David Stampe’s Natural Phonology that I consider worth considering.
