This paper develops an analysis of epenthesis as a universal syllable-based process in which syllable boundaries arise through the application of markedness constraints on consonant sequences at the level of lexical representation. The purpose of the analysis is to show that, universally, epenthesis occurs in order to create nuclear material for ...

Stress-epenthesis interactions
2001In this paper I argue that the correspondence approach to stress-epenthesis interactions provides a better match with the data than the multi-level approach. The general argument of the paper is that disruption of normal stress patterns by epenthetic material is caused by one of two factors: avoidance of epenthetic material in prominent positions, and ...

Epenthesis and syllable weight
Natural Language and Linguistic Theory, 1995A standard assumption in the moraic theory of syllable weight is that a syllable must contain at least one mora, which is usually associated with a vowel. This paper presents arguments and evidence against this assumption. The evidence is drawn primarily from the behavior of epenthetic syllables in Mohawk and Iraqi Arabic with brief reference to ...

Vowel epenthesis has been most adequately described using nonlinear phonology approaches. It has been shown that vowel insertion is predictable from the syllabic constraints imposed in a specific language. Halle and Vergnaud (1978) considered vowel epenthesis, as a rule, applied to fill empty nodes created in derivation.
