Abstract
Phonological processes are generally opaque, a well-known problem for two-level, nonderivational theories such as standard Optimality Theory (OT). A variety of solutions have been proposed to address this problem, including one by John McCarthy (1999a), who provided the first comprehensive attempt to treat opacity with the same single enrichment to standard OT: “Sympathy.” McCarthy predicts that natural languages contain distinct, rather than similar, processes which respectively do and do not opacify a third process, a view which this chapter examines using data from Rio Negro Argentinian Spanish involving a sometimes-opaque interaction between a coda-based process and resyllabification into onset. It first considers opacity in a multistratal derivational framework (Lexical Phonology) and then shows that it meets the description of two processes violating the same faithfulness constraint, but does not comply with McCarthy's prediction. The chapter argues that sympathy cannot handle all cases of opacity in OT, and also looks at the derivational account based on Lexical Phonology's division between lexical and postlexical strata.
