초록

The status of the Projection Principle, one major principle in Government Phonology (henceforth GP), has been brought into big arguments. This principle requires that government is defined in lexical representations and remains constant throughout a derivation. Kaye, Lowenstamm & Vergnaud (1985, henceforth KLV) propose the Projection Principle to account for the apparent indifference of consonant sequences on government relations in Tigrinya. However, Park & Michaels (1997) argue that this principle should be excluded from GP, analyzing Korean consonant cluster phenomena such as tensing and neutralization where the Projection Principle cannot hold. By reanalyzing the case of Tigrinya which motivated the Projection Principle, they suggest that the Projection Principle should be replaced with a derivational account of government. Following their idea, this paper explores other crosslinguistic phenomena such as the stop/ fricative metathesis in Hebrew and the nasal/liquid metathesis in Old Spanish. Attempting to analyze the data in those languages without the Projection Principle, this paper shows that the Projection Principle does no work and can be abandoned in GP.

Abstract

The status of the Projection Principle, one major principle in Government Phonology (henceforth GP), has been brought into big arguments. This principle requires that government is defined in lexical representations and remains constant throughout a derivation. Kaye, Lowenstamm & Vergnaud (1985, henceforth KLV) propose the Projection Principle to account for the apparent indifference of consonant sequences on government relations in Tigrinya. However, Park & Michaels (1997) argue that this principle should be excluded from GP, analyzing Korean consonant cluster phenomena such as tensing and neutralization where the Projection Principle cannot hold. By reanalyzing the case of Tigrinya which motivated the Projection Principle, they suggest that the Projection Principle should be replaced with a derivational account of government. Following their idea, this paper explores other crosslinguistic phenomena such as the stop/ fricative metathesis in Hebrew and the nasal/liquid metathesis in Old Spanish. Attempting to analyze the data in those languages without the Projection Principle, this paper shows that the Projection Principle does no work and can be abandoned in GP.
