摘要:Catalan obstruents are involved in voicing and continuancy alternations that are dependent on both segmental and syllabic environments. The interaction on syllabically conditioned processes (spirantization, final devoicing and regressive voicing assimilation) and resylabification results in cases of surface opacity. This paper puts forward an analysis that distinguishes representationally between word-internal and resyllabified onsets by considering the latter as ambisyllabic, thus eliminating opacity and allowing for an adequate analysis within a monostratal framework such as Optimality Theory.
