Description

The chapter develops an analysis of vowel reduction in unstressed positions not immediately preceding stressed syllables and hence not affected by the presence of tone. The analysis is based on the model of prominence reduction developed by Crosswhite (2001), and is formalized in terms of the markedness constraints regulating sonority of prosodic heads and non-heads proposed by de Lacy (2006).
