Prominence conditioned transformation in metrical analysis
Crowhurst and Michael (2005) develops an OT analysis of the complex word stress system of Nanti, an Amazonian language of the Kampa group. They claim that the difficulty of developing a transformational analysis of the system clearly demonstrates the superiority of OT. One goal of this paper is to show that their claim is false and the complexities of the system are well within the scope of transformational phonology; a straightforward analysis i…
GDE syllabification – A generalization of Dell and Elmedlaoui's syllabification algorithm
This article shows how Dell and Elmedlaoui's well-known analysis of syllabification in Imdlawn Tashlhiyt Berber can be generalized so that it can be successfully applied in a much wider range of languages. Khalka Mongolian, which has extensive epenthesis and complex codas, could be a textbook example of templatic syllabification. Nevertheless, it is successfully analyzed by the generalization, with coda sonority sequencing derived as a consequenc…
The fine structure of wh-movement and the proper formulation of the ECP
This paper attempts to unify the analyses of a wide range of wh-extraction phenomena by developing Chomsky's idea that movement relations must lead, at LF, either to chains with local links or operator-variable pairs. By assuming that variables in operator-variable pairs are interpreted as individual variables' and relating the possibility of interpreting traces as individual variables to θ-role assignment and the level at which it occurs, a numb…
Cyclic Computation, A Computationally Efficient Minimalist Syntax
We construct a completely cyclic Minimalist theory of syntactic derivations. A derivation consists of a sequence of cycles. Each cycle starts with the introduction of a new head and merger of the head's selected arguments, followed by satisfaction (via checking) of the head's removable features. The theory includes no acyclic devices such as lexical arrays or comparison of derivations. Satisfaction of features is accompanied by full category move…
