Abstract
Abundant violations of the Sonority Sequencing Generalization in Polish are studied from the perspective of prosodic phonology. We argue that word-initial and non-word-initial extrasyllabic consonants play distinct roles in the operation of phonological rules. We further claim that they are integrated prosodically by linking to the phonological word node and that this is done at different stages of derivation. Transparency of extrasyllabic consonants is also investigated. We are indebted to Michael Kenstowicz for his enlightening criticism and valuable suggestions as to the organization of this article. We are also grateful to the three anonymous reviewers for their comments that have led to the improvement of both the content and the form of this study.
