Document Summary

We do not necessarily know if the change is going from left to right or right to left. We need to have a sufficient amount of data to know this. [l] and [r] are alternating, and we think that [l] is underlying because it is the one that shows up when there is no reason to pick between the both of them. [x] just refers to whatever feature we are working with in a given example. In this case, the more specific rule is: You just flip the direction in which you are going (not left-right direction . According the data from the conference worksheet, what seems to be going on in this example? plus-minus direction!) We have british english pronunciation versus american english pronunciation.
