In this paper, I argue that consonant extrametricality or weight asymmetry be a direct result from the constraint interaction ranked as Weight-to-Stress >> Weight-by-Position and that NonFinality force a weight asymmetry between non-word-final and word-final positions. An analysis in terms of violable constraints can do without the device of consonant extrametricaltiy for stress purposes. In addition, I contend that the constraint-based approach outperforms previous extrametricality-based analyses by demonstrating that the former can capture a linguistic variation of weight asymmetry. It is attributable to constraint interplay between constraint groups that refer to weight asymmetry and others that define syllable types of languages.
