Charles Reiss

Charles Reiss /ˈrs/ is an American linguistics professor teaching at Concordia University in Montreal.

His contributions to linguistics have been in the area of phonology, historical linguistics, and cognitive science. Along with colleague Mark Hale, he is a proponent of substance-free phonology, the idea that phonetic substance is inaccessible to phonological computation (see paper 'Substance abuse and dysfunctionalism').
