Abstract:
The phonology-phonetics interface can be described in terms
of cue constraints. This paper illustrates the workings
of cue constraints in interaction with each other and in
interaction with other classes of constraints. Beside their
general usefulness in describing prelexical perception and
phonetic implementation, cue constraints help to account
for special phenomena such as poverty of the base, the prototype
effect, foreign-language perception, and loanword adaptation.
