A Study of Eastern Andalusian Dialectology: A Phonemic Description of the Syllable-Final Consonant System of the Dialect Spoken in Montejicar (Granada)
Concerning my second objective, never had all these processes been formally accounted for and showed to interact within the same framework. A combination of Feature Geometry, CV Phonology, and Moraic Phonology is used for their representation; thus contributing to the growing evidence in favor of a two-tier approach where both a moraic tier and a CV tier are present in the same analysis. Therefore, I suggest that for Eastern Andalusian in particular, and Spanish in general, a nonlinear model within generative phonology results in a satisfactory explanatory account of the phonetic data.
