Cases with more than one potential Rendaku site follow straightforwardly, and the output with<br />
the correct Rendaku voic<strong>in</strong>g is chosen as the w<strong>in</strong>ner by the analysis (123):<br />

To complete the overall picture, (124) shows the rank<strong>in</strong>g of the constra<strong>in</strong>t OO-IDENT[stem], 44<br />
which exists alongside OO-IDENT[word] (see Ito & Mester 1997a for evidence from <strong>Japanese</strong>).<br />
Crucially, OO-IDENT[stem] must rank below SEQVOI, so that Rendaku can apply <strong>in</strong> simple<br />
compounds, i.e., the free occurrence of the stem tana must not block voic<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> kamidana.
