Resumo: | This article discusses the phonological characterization of vocalic segments through distinctive features, following a specification of features according to a more traditional approach. The features [high] and [ATR] are used to establish a distinction between mid vowels. Only [-ATR] is responsible for identifying a common group between low-mid vowels and the low vowel. The data collected in the city of Prata, located in the Triângulo Mineiro region, Brazil, reveal a considerable number of cases that indicate a motivated vowel lowering, especially through the process of vowel harmony. That means that, when in stressed syllable or contiguous position, the low-mid vowel and the low vowel interfere with the production of the low-mid vowel in pre-stressed syllable position. According to the Optimality Theory, more specifically the partial constraint ranking, it is possible to establish a ranking for the cases concerning a vowel harmony motivated by the feature [-ATR]. |

Os traços [alto] e [ATR] são usados para estabelecer uma distinção com relação às vogais médias. Apenas o traço [-ATR] é responsável por identificar um grupo comum entre as vogais médias baixas e a vogal baixa. Os dados do dialeto de Prata, cidade situada no Triângulo Mineiro, revelam que há um número considerável de casos que apontam o abaixamento vocálico motivado, sobretudo, pelo processo de harmonia vocálica. Isto quer dizer que a vogal média baixa e a vogal baixa em posição tônica ou contígua interferem na produção da vogal média baixa em posição pretônica. Conforme a Teoria da Otimalidade, mais especificamente o ranqueamento parcial de restrições, é possível estabelecer um ranqueamento para os casos voltados para a harmonia vocálica motivada pelo traço [-ATR].

This article discusses the phonological characterization of vocalic segments through distinctive features, following a specification of features according to a more traditional approach. The features [high] and [ATR] are used to establish a distinction between mid vowels. Only [-ATR] is responsible for identifying a common group between low-mid vowels and the low vowel. The data collected in the city of Prata, located in the Triângulo Mineiro region, Brazil, reveal a considerable number of cases that indicate a motivated vowel lowering, especially through the process of vowel harmony. That means that, when in stressed syllable or contiguous position, the low-mid vowel and the low vowel interfere with the production of the low-mid vowel in pre-stressed syllable position. According to the Optimality Theory, more specifically the partial constraint ranking, it is possible to establish a ranking for the cases concerning a vowel harmony motivated by the feature [-ATR]. |
