In analyzing a language's sibilant system, a linguist finds [s], [ʃ], and [ɕ] in the following environments: [s] before [a, o, u], [ʃ] before [i, e] and word-finally, [ɕ] only before [i] in morphologically complex words. Native speaker perception tests show that speakers consistently identify [s] and [ʃ] as different sounds but group [ɕ] with [ʃ] unless explicitly trained to distinguish them. What phonemic analysis best accounts for this evidence?
