O Léxico como Controlador de Mudanças Sonoras

Résumé

ln this paper I keep the diffusionist assumption that sound changes are better viewed as controlled by the lexicon. AIso, I propose here that the lexicon should be taken as the output of grammar. ar, in other words, I propose that the lexicon should be analyzed in terms of the utterances in which it occurs, with all the contextuai information that it carnes, and not in terms of its virtual characteristics.
