Abstract
Double letters in German orthography are described as being conditioned by a complex interaction between segmental, suprasegmental, morphological and lexical triggers. lt is demonstrated that the relevant principles can be stated and organized in terms of constraints of Optimality Theory. The different triggers form a hierarchy of constraints, with low level segmental faithfulness conditions being violated by other faithfulness constraints that pertain to the levels of syllable structure and to a correspondance principle that ensures morphemic invariance.
