An allophone is a conditioned realisation of the same [[phoneme]].

Allophones can be [[complementary allophones]] which are distributed throughout speech predictably and with regards to the phonetic environment.

An example of this is in English if a word has a [p] in initial position followed by a vowel then it will be realised with aspiration [pʰ], as in the word 'pin', however if it appears word internally, as in 'spin', finally, as in 'cap', or followed by a consonant, as in 'print', it will not have this aspiration.

Allophones can also be [[free variants]].

Whether something is an allophone or a phoneme within a language can affect the phonological [[perceptual boundary]]. Kazanina et al. (2006) did a study on [[Russian]] and [[Korean]] speakers' perception of [t] and [d]. In Russian there is phonemic contrast beween [t] and [d] and in Korean they are allophones of the same phoneme. The study found that there was a mismatch field (MMF) in a MEG scan when the subjects were presented with each token. In the Korean speaker no mismatch field was present, however in the Russian speakers there was.
