Wiktionary examples

These source excerpts show how konkomitant appears in context. They illustrate usage; the definition above remains the entry’s reference meaning.

  1. Die Aspiration (= Behauchung) der stimmlosen Verschlusslaute ist im Deutschen ein konkomitantes Merkmal bei ihrer Aussprache; es ist damit aber zwar redundant, aber nicht überflüssig, da es zur Verdeutlichung der Laute und damit zur Sicherung der Kommunikation beiträgt.
  2. „Dauer eines Segments ist oft konkomitant mit anderen phonetischen Merkmalen wie Gespanntheit und - bei Vokalen - Marginalität (i.e. Nicht-Zentralität). Im Prinzip kann jedes dieser Merkmale das jeweils phonologisch distinktive sein, wobei die anderen dann konkomitant (und somit redundant) sind.“
