An argument for the feature [dental]
Vowel prothesis in Walliser German
The present article investigates the pattern of vowel epenthesis in word-initial position (prothesis) in the Walliser dialect of German. In that dialect, /a/ is inserted before a word-initial /r/, provided that an unstressed vowel does not precede it. It is argued that Vowel Prothesis is a strategy for avoiding word onsets beginning with highly sonorant nonsyllabic segments and since /r/ is the most sonorous nonsyllabic segment in that position, …

The historical development of [g] and [b] in a regional German dialect
In a German dialect spoken in a rural region of Lorraine the reflexes of Middle High German (MHG) [g b] are the corresponding fricatives ([j β]) in intervocalic position, but MHG [g b] surface in the same dialect as [g b] before [ɘl], e.g. MHG le[g]en > le[j]en ‘to lay’ vs. MHG ke[g]el > Ke[g]el ‘cone’. We argue that the spirantization of MHG [b g] requires the spreading of [+continuant] from a vowel. Since the sound change also went into effect …
Introduction Theory and typology of the word
1. Introduction This special issue is a collection of seven papers dealing with the theory and typology of the word . In Section 2 we discuss various theoretical issues and typological generalizations involving grammatical words and phonological words . Section 3 provides a brief summary of the main ideas contained in the seven articles and shows how they relate to the general topics discussed in Section 2. Section 4 points to future areas of res…
Phonological and morphological domains in Kyirong Tibetan
A number of phonological generalizations in the Kyirong dialect of Tibetan are argued to require reference to rules or constraints referring to the syllable or the phonological word (pword). The latter domain is significant because it requires three distinct representations for suffix-stem combinations, depending on the particular suffix involved: (a) the stem and suffix form one pword, (b) the suffix lies outside of the pword of the stem and is …

German glide formation and its theoretical consequences
In German the complementary distribution of [i] and [j] motivate a process of glide formation according to which /i/ surfaces as [j] when situated to the left of a vowel. The present study examines German words in which a prevocalic /i/ occurs after two consonants and demonstrates that the process is blocked from applying if the two consonants show a sonority rise. These data can be accounted for most elegantly in an Optimality Theoretic approach…

Natural vs. unnatural sound changes
Natural vs. unnatural sound changes
In Proto-Longgu-Makira-Malaitan (Southeast Solomonic, Oceanic, Austronesian) a regular sound change is often assumed, according to which Proto-Oceanic *s surfaced as *t before nonhigh vowels but remained *s before high vowels. This article presents an alternative account for the developments in Southeastern Solomonic, according to which the change described above is decomposed into two stages: (i) the unconditioned occlusivization of *s to *t and…
Derived Environment Blocking Effects in Optimality Theory
Towards a typology of stop assibilation
In this article we propose that there are two universal properties for phonological stop assibilations, namely (i) assibilations cannot be triggered by /i/ unless they are also triggered by /j/, and (ii) voiced stops cannot undergo assibilations unless voiceless ones do. The article presents typological evidence from assibilations in over 30 languages supporting both (i) and (ii). It is argued that assibilations are to be captured in the Optimali…
The phonetic motivation for phonological stop assibilation
This article examines the motivation for phonological stop assibilations, e.g. /t/ is realized as [ts], [s] or [t∫] before /i/, from the phonetic perspective. Hall & Hamann (2006) posit the following two implications: (a) Assibilation cannot be triggered by /i/ unless it is also triggered by by /j/, and (b) voiced stops cannot undergo assibilations unless voiceless ones do. In the following study we present the results of two acoustic experiments…
On the Nongemination of /R/ in West Germanic Twenty-One Years Later
L'A. s'interesse dans cet article au phenomene de gemination dans les langues germaniques occidentales (vieux haut allemand, vieil anglais et vieux saxon), caracterise par le fait qu'une consonne suivant une voyelle courte est geminee en germanique occidental devant la glide palatale /j/ (e.g. vieux saxon skeppian, vieil anglais scieppan). Cependant, cette gemination ne s'opere plus devant la glide palatale /j/ avec la rothique /r/ (e.g. vieil an…

Loanword Nativization in German
The present article examines the changes that affect stressed vowels in the nativization of loanwords into Standard German, e.g. laxing of vowels like [i] to [I] in F[I]rma ( > FAITH are independently required for the native lexicon of German. Thus, we conclude that our treatment is inherently superior to any rule-based analysis because a rule-based treatment would be forced to posit specific rules to account for the loanword data which have no i…
Against extrasyllabic consonants in German and English
The present article provides a reanalysis of word-edge coronal obstruents in German and English commonly assumed to be extrasyllabic (e.g. the [s] in German Gips ‘plaster' and in English lapse ). It will be argued below that (i) there are no extrasyllabic consonants in surface representations in German and English and that surface forms are fully syllabified, and (ii) there is no derivational stage in which extrasyllabicity in either of these lan…

The distribution of superheavy syllables in Standard German
The present article offers an Optimality-Theoretic analysis capturing the distribution of 'superheavy (=VXC) syllables' in Standard German, i.e., syllables consisting of a long vowel + consonant(s), diphthong + consonant(s) or short vowel + two or more consonants. VXC is restricted to surfacing either (i) in word-final position, (ii) before a compound boundary, or (iii) before a consonant-initial suffix; by contrast, VXC is typically non-occurrin…

Syllabically conditioned coalescence and deletion in Zoque
This article analyzes consonant coalescence (e.g. |yp| → [p y ]) and consonant deletion in the Mixe-Zoque language Zoque spoken in southern Mexico. These processes will be argued to function as repair strategies necessary to convert underlying forms into syllabically well formed surface representations. Cast within optimality theory, the analysis accounts for the Zoque facts with the interaction of several universal faithfulness and markedness co…
