Abstract

This paper is to offer a more consistent analysis to the apparent asymmetry in directionality observed in the examples of English obstruent voicing assimilation: /leaf-z/ → lea[vz] vs. /belief-z/ → belie[fs]. Drawing on the question 'why does the one and the same phonological process of voicing assimilation occur progressively in some cases and regressively in others?', this paper proposes that there is no difference in the direction of application of English obstruent voicing assimilation in sandhi environments: voicing assimilation occurs uniformly under the meta-ranking of FAITH-STEM ≫ FAITH-AFFIX. By exploiting the use of morpheme-specific lexical representations from the lexicon-oriented perspectives, both regular and exceptional assimilation patterns can be explained more consistently without resorting to any ad hoc stipulations of morpheme-specific constraints, morpheme-specific constraint rankings, or arbitrary input forms of the affix.
