    Abstract: In this paper, we provide a preliminary OT analysis of consonant deletion patterns and apparent OCP-driven intermorphemic phonological changes in St. Lawrence Island/Central Siberian Yupik (Inuit-Yupik-Unangam Tunuu; ISO 639-3: ess; here ‘Yupik’), an endangered polysynthetic language of the Bering Strait region. We propose a ranking of four constraints that, among others not discussed here, determine Yupik surface forms: MAX, DEP, *COMPLEX, and a prohibition on fricatives in adjacency known as OCPf (Lin 1997). We then describe the results of a pilot study in which native speakers were asked to produce complex forms from a root and a derivational morpheme. Further work will investigate these patterns in more detail and attempt to explain recalcitrant data such as instances of epenthesis in place of consonant (specifically, fricative) deletion.
