Clitics and voicing in Dutch

Clitics and voicing in Dutch in Proceedings of BLS 39

Abstract: I propose a two-layer OT analysis for the interaction of voicing processes and clitic attachment in Dutch. I argue that this analysis is empirically and conceptually superior to two earlier analyses: the rule-based Lexical Phonology analysis from Booij (1995), and the single-level OT analysis from Grijzenhout and Krämer (2000).
