A corpus of Dutch English is examined for the occurrence of segment substitutions and exchanges, with a view to establishing the structural conditions which are conducive to the syntagmatic association and interaction of segments to produce errors. Analysis of the data reveals the presence of a number of phonological constraints which (a) account for the positions in the string at which segments interact; (b) determine the types of segments that interact; and (c) determine the form relative to each other that interacting segments take in the produced foreign language utterance. While the positions at which segments interact, the features which appear to be present in segmental interactions, and the resulting form of interacting segments relative to each other may be related to universal phonological properties and characteristics of syntagmatic structure, the general types of segments that interact to produce error are constrained by cross-linguistic phonemic differences between the native and foreign language. The results of the analysis are shown to shed light on (i) the nature of phonological representation; (ii) the relationship between linguistic competence and performance descriptions; (iii) the relationship between native language and foreign language speech production; and (IV) the description of segmental variation in foreign language speech.
