Abstract
Although the class of rhotics is not arbitrary regarding its phonological behavior thanks to its synchronic and diachronic stability and sonorant characteristic in syllable structures, it is arbitrary in terms of phonetic realizations. In a theory which allows such arbitrary phonetic realizations, there should be a phonology-phonetics interface which converts phonological primes into phonetic objects. The post-phonological spell-out, the interface between modular phonology and phonetics which have distinct vocabularies, acts as a dictionary, helping abstract phonological objects surface as certain phonetic articulations. As exemplified by rhotics in this study, phonetic qualities do not seem to be sufficient in defining the phonological identity of a segment. According to the language-specific post-phonological spell-out, it is possible for some rhotics to be realized as [r], some as [ʀ] and others as [ʃ] and all of these are assumed to be completely arbitrary. This assumption is also in line with substance-free phonology which argues that phonological objects do not have any phonetic substance associated with them.

Abstract
Rotik sınıfı hem eşzamanlı hem de artzamanlı tutarlılıkları ve seslem yapılarında gösterdikleri titreşimlilik özellikleri nedeniyle sesbilimsel davranışları yönünden nedensiz bir sınıf olmasa da sesbilgisel gerçekleşmeleri yönünden nedensiz bir sınıftır. Bu biçimdeki nedensiz sesbilgisel gerçekleşmelere izin veren bir kuramda, sesbilimsel asalları sesbilgisel nesnelere dönüştüren bir sesbilim-sesbilgisi arakesiti olmalıdır. Farklı sözvarlıklarına sahip olan modüler sesbilim ve sesbilgisinin arakesiti olan artsesbilimsel dağıtım, soyut sesbilimsel nesnelerin sesbilgisel eklemlenmelerini ortaya çıkaran bir sözlük görevi görmektedir. Bu çalışmada rotiklerle örneklendirildiği üzere, bir parçanın sesbilimsel kimliğinin tanımlanmasında sesbilgisel nitelikler yeterli görünmemektedir. Dilden dile değişen artsesbilimsel dağıtıma göre farklı dillerde bazı rotiklerin [r], bazılarının [ʀ] ve bazılarının da [ʃ] olarak gerçekleşmesi mümkündür ve bunların bütünüyle nedensiz olduğu belirtilmektedir. Bu varsayım, sesbilimsel nesnelerin kendileriyle ilişkilendirilmiş herhangi bir sesbilgisel varlığa sahip olmadıklarını öne süren varlıksız sesbilim ile aynı çizgidedir.
