초록
HappY-Tensing is a phonological phenomenon in which the final lax high vowel in such words as happy, city and copy is tensed. With regard to HappY-Tensing, English displays dialectal variations. On the one hand, the phenomenon occurs in some dialects of English while it is absent from other dialects. On the other hand, the tensed vowel is realized variously depending on dialects in case HappY-Tensing occurs. The goal of this paper is to provide a description of the dialectal variations in HappY-Tensing and to offer a theoretical account of the variations. This account is couched within the framework of Optimality Theory (Prince and Smolensky 2004). The account proposed here adopts Lee’s (2003) claim that tenseness in English is a distinctive feature which is independent of length.
Abstract
HappY-Tensing is a phonological phenomenon in which the final lax high vowel in such words as happy, city and copy is tensed. With regard to HappY-Tensing, English displays dialectal variations. On the one hand, the phenomenon occurs in some dialects of English while it is absent from other dialects. On the other hand, the tensed vowel is realized variously depending on dialects in case HappY-Tensing occurs. The goal of this paper is to provide a description of the dialectal variations in HappY-Tensing and to offer a theoretical account of the variations. This account is couched within the framework of Optimality Theory (Prince and Smolensky 2004). The account proposed here adopts Lee’s (2003) claim that tenseness in English is a distinctive feature which is independent of length.
