A constraint based approach to Spanish phonology
Abstract
dc:description"The goal of this dissertation is to argue for a Constraint-based Approach to phonology. The term ""constraint-based"" is used in opposition to the term ""rule-based."" In a rule-based approach, rules are at the core and constraints are filters that limit the overgeneration inherent to rules. In a constraint-based approach, the role of rules is minimum and it is compliance with well-formedness constraints that drives phonology."
