!" I assume that the Morphology contains the Hierarchy of the Morphological Features in (29) xvii :<br />
(29) Case > Person > Number > Gender<br />
CASE features dominate (e.g., are ranked higher than) PERSON features, PERSON features<br />
dominate NUMBER features and NUMBER features dominate GENDER features. The latter<br />
do not seem to affect VD.<br />
7.2.1 Determiners and Inflected Prepositions<br />
!" V1 underspecified for the number feature, i.e. /a, o/, are regularly elided before vowel-initial<br />
nouns (no matter if the noun begins with a/an stressed/unstressed V2).<br />
!" V1 specified for the number feature, i.e. /i, e/, tend to refuse VD nearly categorically (no<br />
matter if the noun begins with a/an stressed/unstressed V2).<br />
