Abstract

In this stimulating paper McCarthy returns to the fundamental conceptual foundations of OT: the output-orientation of markedness effects. The paper has made me think in a new way about several areas of my recent research on the variable behaviour of laterals (Yip 2003), and my ongoing work on tone. The remarks below summarize some of that thinking.
