ON THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LATERALITY AND CORONALITY

Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on the relationship between laterality and coronality. It explores a number of properties of laterals. Despite their coronal properties, laterals form a constituent with the other sonorant features. While laterals have coronal properties phonologically, this is not a result of laterals being dependents of coronals but instead follows from a structural constraint—the structural complexity constraint. Given the structural complexity constraint (SCC), laterals can only be coronal. The SCC is supplemented by the head-dependent constraint, which prohibits spreading to spontaneous voice unless the segments involved are identical in place of articulation. The implications of these proposals require further study, but both the SCC and the head-dependent constraint seem to be otherwise motivated and provide a direction for further research.
