Abstract

In this paper, I argue in favor of a constraint-based approach to Spanish resyllabification. An Optimality Theoretic analysis is proposed and compared to the rule-based account. A parallel analysis based on Correspondence Theory and Identity constraints (Kenstowicz's, 1995) demonstrates that aspiration of /s/ in an onset position does not constitute evidence in favor of a derivational account; in addition, the analysis proposed explains the interaction between resyllabification and aspiration and expands Kenstowicz's original proposal to various processes of derivation, suffixation and resyllabification.
