This paper shows that a postalveolar co-occurrence restriction (Obligatory Contour Principle, OCP) is a productive component of Slovenian phonology. We first examine whether an apparent OCP-based restriction on derived palatalization, previously observed in corpus data (Jurgec 2016 ), extends to novel forms via a goodness-rating task. We then explore the generality of the restriction across the lexicon, in non-derived novel words as well as derived forms. Our results confirm that native speakers judge derived palatalized nonce forms to be less acceptable when the stem contains another postalveolar, reflecting the pattern found in the previous corpus study. We further demonstrate that multiple postalveolars are dispreferred even in non-derived words, which suggests that the effect is a general case of OCP. This is additionally supported by effects of proximity (the restriction is stronger for postalveolars separated only by a single vowel than for those further apart from one another) and identity (the restriction is stronger for identical than non-identical postalveolars), reflecting cross-linguistic tendencies in the manifestation of OCP and non-local consonant dissimilation. Finally, we show that the restriction does not appear to apply to all places of articulation, suggesting that the co-occurrence restriction in Slovenian specifically targets postalveolars, and adding a previously unattested pattern to the typology of OCP phenomena on consonant place.

斯洛文尼亚语中的肺泡后共现限制

本文表明,后牙槽同现限制(强制性轮廓原则,OCP)是斯洛文尼亚音系的一个富有成效的组成部分。我们首先检查之前在语料库数据(Jurgec 2016)中观察到的基于 OCP 的对派生腭化的明显限制是否通过良好评级任务扩展到新形式。然后,我们在非派生新词和派生形式中探讨了整个词典中限制的普遍性。我们的结果证实,当词干包含另一个后齿槽时,母语人士判断派生的腭化现时形式不太可接受,这反映了在之前的语料库研究中发现的模式。我们进一步证明,即使在非派生词中,多个 postalveolars 也是不受欢迎的,这表明这种效果是 OCP 的一般情况。这还受到邻近效应(仅由一个元音分隔的后牙槽骨的限制比彼此相距更远的后牙龈的限制更强)和同一性(相同的后牙槽泡的限制强于非相同的后牙槽)的影响,反映了跨语言OCP 和非本地辅音异化的表现倾向。最后,我们表明该限制似乎并不适用于所有发音部位,这表明斯洛文尼亚语中的共现限制专门针对后牙槽,并在辅音位置的 OCP 现象类型学中添加了以前未经证实的模式。
