This book evaluates the predictions of syllable-based analyses of Italian in three domains: native speaker intuition of consonant cluster syllabification, definite article allomorphy, and segment duration, and tests the claimed convergence of multiple phenomena on the same syllable structure.
Revealing that the standard syllable-based analyses of consonant cluster divisions, definite article allomorphy and segment duration are not supported by the experiemental evidence, this study shows that the conditioning factors for these central processes in Italian phonology are segmental, contrast-based conditions.
