A Harmonic Serialism Approach toSpirantization in English

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This study delves into spirantization in English whose examples are divided into three based on the syntactic category and composition of a base. It is argued that spirantization is triggered by an English-specific generalized constraint which prohibits the sequence of base-final alveolar stops plus non-low unstressed front suffix initial vowels. The data for the process are delimited to class 1 suffixes because the process is motivated only by specific class 1 suffixes in English. The issues we discuss are the voiceless nature of a resulting spirantization segment irrespective of voicing feature of a target segment, and a unified analysis of both transparent and opaque cases of spirantization examples. By including such issues in the analysis, the current study tries to show more extensive aspects of spirantization in English.
