the "coding tree" of features (cf. Fant 1973: 180) seems to be a rather arguable
operation. Instead of following Chomsky & Halle's cogent appeal to make "use of

Current Studies in Spanish Linguistics
In essence, I am maintaining that vocoids which are syllabic in underlying
representation may surface as nonsyllabic, i.e. lose their syllabicity in the course
of the derivation. The evidence for syllabicity loss is in fact very strong in Spanish,
