Markedness in phonology and in syntax: the problem of grounding
R Bermúdez-Otero, K Börjars - Lingua, 2006 - Elsevier
This article adopts the perspective of Optimality Theory (OT) to address the question whether
phonology and syntax are equally autonomous. We show that OT enjoys the same
advantages and encounters the same problems in syntax as in phonology; this suggests that
markedness plays an equally important rôle in both components of language. Most
markedness constraints, however, are clearly grounded: although they refer to specifically
linguistic categories (self-containment), they typically display some degree of functional …
