ABSTRACT
The problem that this book addresses is an interface problem: certain phonological rules apply to domains larger than the word when words occur in particular syntactic relations, and they are blocked when these relations do not obtain. An example of such a process is intrusive-r in Received Pronunciation of English (RP). In RP [r] is inserted before a vowel in certain syntactic contexts (la), but not in others (lb). https://www.niso.org/standards/z39-96/ns/oasis-exchange/table">
