Chains, Prec, and Icelandic Opacity = Chains, Prec, and Icelandic Opacity

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

If no special mechanisms are adopted, opacity is left unresolved in Parallel OT due to the lack of an intermediate level of representation between input and output. However, in OT with the regime of candidate chains obeying gradualness and harmonic improvement, opacity is not in a chaos in that the violation of faithfulness constraints in a chain is referable. Furthermore, Precedence (Prec) constraint plays a key role as a filter to get rid of the chains disobeying the violation order of faithfulness constraints. Targeting the data of Icelandic opacity where overapplication and underapplication arise in the rule relation of /Y/ -epenthesis, it is claimed that candidate chains and Prec constraint are responsible for opacity phenomena in Icelandic and that no back-door introduction of any special mechanisms is necessary. In essence, opacity is attributed to the violation order of faithfulness constraints in a chain.
