Exercises:

1. English deletion and assimilation. In some registers of English speech, the following pronunciations may be heard. (Assume the transcriptions are correct, whether or not it matches your own speech.)

There are two alternations: a process of consonant deletion and a process of nasal assimilation. Note the cases both where the rules do apply and where they don't.

a. State (in English) the generalization that governs consonant deletion.

b. State (in English) the generalization that governs nasal assimilation.

c. Rewrite rule 13a using SPE formalism.

d. Rewrite 13b using both SPE and autosegmental formalism.

e. Give a derivation for [græmmʌðɚ] (see example (7) in the text)



f. Must your two rules apply in order? Give evidence for your answer by showing correct and/or incorrect derivations (see example (8) in the text).
