StrongEnd #526

Closed nkalivoda closed 3 years ago

nkalivoda commented 3 years ago

StrongEnd, a constraint mentioned but rejected by Bellik, Ito, Kalivoda, & Mester (to appear, p. 16 of PDF draft):

StrongEnd (reverse of Elfner's 2012 StrongStart; to be rejected) Assign one violation for every node in the prosodic tree whose rightmost daughter is of category ω and is lower on the prosodic hierarchy than its sister immediately to its left.

jbellik commented 3 years ago

Is this to go on the interface? I just did a very quick implementation of it but haven't done rigorous testing.

nkalivoda commented 3 years ago

I think it should go on the interface – but buried way down under "Show more...". I think it's a natural thing to wonder about, even if it shouldn't be adopted.

nkalivoda commented 3 years ago

I think the same about WeakStart in #525.

jbellik commented 3 years ago

Minimally tested first passes of these constraints are in the branch strongEnd. They have not been added to the interface there, and also lack test files.
