Lecours and Caplan (1975) levelled this criticism quite sharply. Had she made this distinction, she would have been obliged to mix syntagmatic and paradigmatic processes. Jakobson’s rather hard-line division between these types of computations perhaps prevented Blumstein from appreciating the problem. Another criticism is that some of the phonemic substitution errors (and especially the phonemic errors of the Broca’s group) could have been phonetic in their origin (Lectures and Caplan 1975: p. 243). Buckmgham (1979; 1986) and Buckingham and Yule (1987) provide more discussion of the practical and theoretical problem of a speaker’s phonetic aberration giving rise to the perception of a phonemic level substitution on the part of the hearer.
