Abstarct: This work proposes a series of ternary scales to replace
certain traditionally binary features.  The focus is on the Inherent
Voicing Scale (Voiceless Obstruent, Voiced Obstruent, Sonorant), which
replace [voice] and [sonorant].  Applications are made to
assimilations, neutralization, and consonant mutation, providing
natural accounts for a number of previously opaque processes.  Other
proposed scales are Consonant Stricture (stop, fricative,
approximant/voiced) and Vowel Height (low, mid, high), which replace
[continuant], [consonantal], [high] and [low].
