I've implemented a solution for phonology that crosses word boundaries around 10 years ago, I was helping a researcher with kind of spreading tone stuff, I'm not sure if it's totally applicable here though. The solution that was also hacky I made back then was to just implement the tone change as free variation in morphology and default to remove it in cg rules, but if I understand correctly, your case actually assimilates the previous word away so it's not exactly the same and the apertium ~ feature might be better for that. -- Doktor Tommi A Pirinen, Computational Linguist, <https://flammie.github.io/purplemonkeydishwasher/>, Universität Hamburg, Hamburger Zentrum für Sprachkorpora <http://hzsk.de>.
