As a step towards improving the exhaustivity of our theory, we offer an account of syllable well-formedness. We have good reason to believe that much of phonology is local, so we would like to do this without referring to any non-local relations. This talk will:
1 Introduce a model-theoretic representation of syllable structure 2 Formalize some universal well-formedness constraints 3 Formalize some language-specific well-formedness constraints

We take the following steps to formalize the SSP:
1 Define a binary sonority relation between segment types that are
2 Extend this to a transitive relation of lesser sonority, in line with
the traditional notion of the sonority hierarchy
3 Develop a set of predicates that enforce rising sonority from onset
to nucleus and falling sonority from nucleus to coda
