Phonological output is redundancy-free and fully interpretable. Current trends in Phonology. Models and Methods, edited by Jacques Durand & Bernard Laks

In orthodox feature theory, phonological output representations must contain redundant feature values in order to achieve phonetic interpretability. This assumption sits awkwardly with the current view that constraints on phonological well-formedness are expressed over output. One inevitable and undesirable result is that redundant feature values clutter up the statement o
