Abstract:
This paper argues against a number of accounts found in dictionaries of Russian word-formation and shows that the verb vstat' ‘stand up' (1) even synchronically is derived from stat' ‘become' and (2) is formed via the prefix vz- rather than v-. We provide semantic, historical, morphophonemic, and typological arguments in favor of this analysis. We argue that the verb vstat' is morphologically complex, but not fully analyzable due to a lack of formal transparency. The affix-root overlap found in the verb vstat' refers to a distinct pattern of Russian historical morphophonemics. Our findings conform to the theory of gradient structures in morphology (Hay & Baayen 2005) and contribute an additional type to the degrees of analyzability described in Panov 1968 & 1999 and Kubrjakova 1970.

This study examines process of morphophonemics in Japanese language. This qualitative study used content analysis as the research design approaching the analysis in qualitative approach. Corpus of this study included words, phrases, sentences and discourse obtained from the two Japanese texts for children: minna no nihongo and Japenese films. Data were analyzed using interactive model: reduction, display, verification and conclusion drawing implementing morphophonemics theory of Koizumi. The study revealed that morphophonemics as a process order between morphology and phonology of a language occured in the Japanese texts for children stiries and the films: including fuka, sakujo, chikau, zero setsuji.

Abstract:
This paper critically reviews S. J. Keyser and Paul Kiparsky's “Syllable Structure in Finnish Phonology” (1984). We also treat Finnish morphophonemics using a CV-tier analysis, but account for forms that their method fails on. We posit six stem types in the verbal lexicon and derive the forms of all inflections of all types with just twelve morphophonemic rules. After the stems are modified and suffixes (and person/number endings) are attached, a single, general, phonological rule of Consonant Gradation applies postlexically. To develop a general theory from our analysis, we consider restrictions on rules which may alter stems: lexical rules apply to stems before affixation and only to the final segments of stems; only post-lexical phonological rules apply to affixes. We eliminate all morphological conditions on individual rules and extrinsic ordering conditions.

Abstract:
The article aims to analyze which allomorphs occur more accurately in English and what factors determine them. The problems that the researchers examine enable English learners and readers to pronounce English words, in this case, English morphemes. The theory employed by the researchers is morphophonemics, dealing with how morphemes alter their appearance or pronunciation in response to the sounds that surround them in a given piece of content. The approach or method that the researchers use in this article is descriptive qualitative method based on the data. The findings that the researchers come across are as follows: (a) the definitive article, (b) the definitive article, (c) Derivation, (d) Irregular verbs, (e) Past tense marker (-ed), (f) Present tense morpheme, (g) Plural noun markers, (h) Possessive markers. It can be seen that the shape or pronunciation of an English word depends on the linguistic environment in which it occurs, and it is obvious that morphophonemic change involves not only replacing but also changing the phonological shape of a morpheme. Based on the data, the researchers find that there are two basic types of allomorph, such as morphophonemic changes and suppletion. The researchers also attend to the theory of Pike, stating that sounds tend to be influenced by their environments.

Abstract:
This research discusses morphophonemic phenomena in the Javanese language in Bengkalis with a focus on sound changes that occur at the morpheme level. Morphophonemics, as a linguistic study that explores the relationship between morphemes (minimal meaning units) and phonemes (minimal sound units), is a theoretical basis for describing morphemic sound changes in Javanese. This study used a descriptive qualitative method. Research data was obtained from the results of Javanese speech by speakers. Research data was obtained from the results of data collection techniques using the listen, speak, note method. The data analysis technique is carried out through the following stages: 1) observing research data; 2) Transcription of research data; 3) Translating research data; 4) Classifying research data; 5) Analyzing changes in nasal meaning according to theory; 6) Draw conclusions from the research results. The research results show that the Javanese language on the island of Bengkalis experiences several morphophonemic phenomena, including changes in phonemes, addition of phonemes, and deletion of sounds at the morpheme level. If the prefix (N-) meets the phoneme /p/ it will change to /m/. Likewise with the prefixes (Sa-) and (Pa-), if they meet the initial phoneme of a vowel, the phoneme /a/ will disappear. Concrete examples are given to illustrate sound changes that occur in various morphemic contexts.

Abstract:
Every language has differences and similarities in its linguistic systems. This is based on the assumption that the languages used by humans around the world come from one common ancestor. However, there are phenomena which are peculiar to each language. Morphophonemic alternation is a universal phenomenon. This means that all languages have this phenomenon. However, there are interesting peculiarities, for example, the morphophonemic alternations in agglutinative languages differ from isolating languages, tonal languages and inflecting languages. Lamaholot language is is not agglutinative, nor is it anlative (?) nor is it tonal. As a language characterized by neither agglutination, isolation nor tone, Lamaholot language has interesting morphophonemic phenomena to study. There is an elision or elimination of sounds, there is the addition or insertion of sounds, there is the preservation of sounds and certain sounds that are altered due to the addition of other sounds. This uniqueness occurs because Lamaholot Language does not have verb affixes as a strategy for morphophonemic change.

Abstract:
This thesis investigates how Shona, an African language spoken in Zimbabwe deals with potentially onsetless syllables (heterosyllabic VV sequences & initial onsetless syllables) and subminimal words. The thesis focuses on the morphophonemics of Karanga and Zezuru—the two principal dialects of Shona. Karanga and Zezuru morphophonemic processes observed in this thesis have only one primary goal; to achieve the typical or preferred Shona phonological structures—the consonant-vowel (CV) syllable and the disyllabic Prosodic Word. Often, when morphemes are concatenated, the resultant phonological structures do not conform to these typical structures. The study examines the repair strategies that Karanga and Zezuru employ to achieve the CV syllable and the disyllabic Prosodic Word. The overall analysis is couched in Optimality Theory (Prince and Smolensky (2004 [1993]. Hiatus resolution strategies are conditioned by prosodic domains/boundaries, and a detailed prosodic parsing is required to account for this phenomenon. The Prosodic Stem, Prosodic Word and the Clitic Group are the prosodic domains relevant for this study. Owing to the impossibility of unifying the cliticization and coalescence facts with the other strategies in a single constraint ranking, two strata are posited—the Word (lexical) and the Phrasal (Postlexical) using the Lexical Phonology and Morphology-Optimality Theory (Kiparsky 2000, 2003). At the Word level, Glide formation is the default strategy, and at the Phrasal level, it is coalescence. Employing the Clements and Hume (1995) Unified Feature Geometry model, with the addition of the feature [pharyngeal], all the hiatus-breakers [j w ʔ ɦ] are analyzed as products of spreading. Karanga and Zezuru display greater variation with respect to prosodic minimality and initial onsetless syllables than in hiatus resolution. It is argued that Zezuru enforces WORD MINIMALITY at the expense of ONSET, and Karanga enforces ONSET at the expense of WORD MINIMALITY. Karanga displays internal variation; it allows initial onsetless syllables in function words but not in lexical ones. Based on tone, reduplication, minimality and cliticization, initial onsetless syllables are argued to be morified, syllabified and not extra-prosodic and therefore do not warrant any special representation.

Full text
Abstract:
This study describes the grammar of the Idaacha dialect of Yoruba in the areas ofphonology and morphophonemics within the framework of generative phonology and the autosegmental approach. In particular, it builds upon Kouyomou's (1986) major work, Phonologie de la langue Idaasha, and argues that the language has eighteen consonants, /b/,/m/, /f/, /t/, /d/, /s/, /n/, /1/, /r/, /c/, /j/, /j/, /k/, /g/, /kp/, /gb/, /w/, /h/, and twelve vowels, /i/, /u/, /e/, /o/, /c/, /o/, /a/, r/, /u/, /E /, /o/, /a/.Particular attention is paid to vowel harmony (VH) and tones. It is argued that the high vowels, /i/, r/, /u/, and /u/ do not participate in this process. As one would expect, VH rules do not apply across word boundaries; they apply before processes such as contraction, abbreviation, and compounding. In regard to tones, it is pointed out that a three-way tonal system is a major characteristic of the language. However, a phenomenon of M/L neutralization is underlined in a specific environment: a final low tone in a verb followed by a direct object noun. In this environment, a low (L) tone changes to mid (M), but the M/L alternation is optional before an initial low-toned noun.In addition to describing these phonological processes, this work examines the morphophonemics of the language. It argues that, like Standard Yoruba (SY), Idaacha hasopen syllables: V and CV. Therefore, words are shaped as VCV, CVCV, VCVCV, and longer lexical items build upon these basic sequences. Morphemes are described with special reference to derivational processes. The issue of prefixation is discussed, and it is claimed that, besides the existing nominalizing prefixes, one cannot prove convincingly, on the basis of synchronic analysis, that the initial vowel in every VCV noun is a prefix. The morphophonemics of nominals is described with regard to associative constructions, noun compounding, verb-noun contraction, and deverbal nouns.<br>Department of English

Baer-Henney, Dinah. "On natural and probabilisic effects during acquisition of morphophonemic alternations." Master's thesis, Universität Potsdam, 2009. http://opus.kobv.de/ubp/volltexte/2009/3681/.

Full text
Abstract:
The acquisition of phonological alternations consists of many aspects as discussions in the relevant literature show. There are contrary findings about the role of naturalness. A natural process is grounded in phonetics; they are easy to learn, even in second language acquisition when adults have to learn certain processes that do not occur in their native language. There is also evidence that unnatural – arbitrary – rules can be learned. Current work on the acquisition of morphophonemic alternations suggests that their probability of occurrence is a crucial factor in acquisition. I have conducted an experiment to investigate the effects of naturalness as well as of probability of occurrence with 80 adult native speakers of German. It uses the Artificial Grammar paradigm: Two artificial languages were constructed, each with a particular alternation. In one language the alternation is natural (vowel harmony); in the other language the alternation is arbitrary (a vowel alternation depends on the sonorancy of the first consonant of the stem). The participants were divided in two groups, one group listened to the natural alternation and the other group listened to the unnatural alternation. Each group was divided into two subgroups. One subgroup then was presented with material in which the alternation occurred frequently and the other subgroup was presented with material in which the alternation occurred infrequently. After this exposure phase every participant was asked to produce new words during the test phase. Knowledge about the language-specific alternation pattern was needed to produce the forms correctly as the phonological contexts demanded certain alternants. The group performances have been compared with respect to the effects of naturalness and probability of occurrence. The natural rule was learned more easily than the unnatural one. Frequently presented rules were not learned more easily than the ones that were presented less frequently. Moreover, participants did not learn the unnatural rule at all, whether this rule was presented frequently or infrequently did not matter. There was a tendency that the natural rule was learned more easily if presented frequently than if presented infrequently, but it was not significant due to variability across participants.<br>Suffixe, die an Wortstämme angehängt werden, tragen grammatische Informationen. Bei Verben wird dabei die Person, Numerus, Tempus, Modus und Genus Verbi angezeigt, bei Nomen Kasus, Numerus und Genus. Durch phonologische Kontexte bedingt kann eine solche morphologische Markierung ihre Gestalt ändern und unterschiedliche Oberflächenformen annehmen. Die dabei entstandenen Allomorphe werden durch regelbasierte Prozesse von dem zugrunde liegenden Morphem abgeleitet. Es zeigt sich, dass der Erwerb morphophonemischer Alternationen ein aufwendiger und schwieriger Lernprozess ist. Die vorliegende Arbeit beschäftigt sich nun mit Faktoren, die den Erwerb der Alternationen positiv beeinflussen können. Zum einen wird der Faktor Natürlichkeit, zum anderen der Faktor Auftretenshäufigkeit diskutiert. Trotz einiger widersprüchlicher Evidenzen bezüglich des ersten Faktors hat sich in der neueren Forschung herausgestellt, dass ein natürlicher Prozess leichter zu lernen ist als ein unnatürlicher. Oft konnte ein Vorteil der natürlichen gegenüber den unnatürlichen Prozessen festgestellt werden. Allerdings zeigt sich dieser Umstand nicht immer – dann wiederum zeigt sich kein Vorteil gegenüber einem der beiden Prozesse. Die Ursachen dafür sind in der Methode oder der Herangehensweise zu suchen. Mache Methode scheint nicht sensitiv genug zu sein, den Vorteil aufzudecken, und manche Studien gehen unterschiedlich an die generelle Frage heran, was denn überhaupt ein natürlicher Prozess ist. Unter Berücksichtigung der einschlägigen Literatur habe ich Charakteristika eines typisch natürlichen Prozesses herausgearbeitet und damit die definitorische Grundlage für die empirische Untersuchung derselben bestimmt. Die Auftretenshäufigkeit eines Prozesses scheint auch ein entscheidender Faktor für den Erwerbsprozess zu sein. Dabei wird der Prozess leichter gelernt, der frequent im Input vorliegt, wohingegen ein Prozess schwieriger zu lernen ist, je weniger häufig er vorkommt. In verschiedenen Studien konnte gezeigt werden, dass die bloße Verteilung eines Musters in Wörtern bzw. im Lexikon schon ausreichen kann, zugrunde liegende Repräsentationen zu formen. Dabei ist immer das frequentere Muster das zuverlässigere. Anhand einer experimentellen Studie habe ich beide Faktoren direkt miteinander verglichen. Es wurde die Lernbarkeit einer natürlichen künstlichen Sprache mit der einer unnatürlichen künstlichen Sprache verglichen. Die Sprachen unterschieden sich lediglich in der Regel, nach der eines von zwei Pluralmorphemen ausgewählt werden musste, wobei die natürliche Sprache nach Vokalharmonie alternierte und die unnatürliche Sprache nach einer arbiträren Regel. In zwei Hauptgruppen wurde 80 erwachsenen Deutschen entweder die eine oder die andere Sprache präsentiert. In jeder Gruppe wurde die Hälfte der Probanden häufig (zu 50%) mit der Alternation konfrontiert, die andere Hälfte infrequent (zu 25%). Nach der Familiarisierungsphase ohne expliziten Lernauftrag war die Aufgabe aller Probanden, von neuen Wörtern der Sprache(n) den Plural zu bilden. Die Analyse der Reaktionen ergab einen Effekt der Natürlichkeit, aber keinen der Auftretenshäufigkeit: Die natürliche Sprache war deutlich besser zu lernen als die unnatürliche. Die Auftretenshäufigkeit in beiden Sprachen führte zu keinem signifikanten Unterschied. Kein einziger von den 40 Probanden, die die unnatürliche Regel präsentiert bekamen, hat die Regel für die entsprechende Alternation gelernt. Es zeigt sich jedoch eine Tendenz bei den Probanden, die die natürliche Sprache erlernen sollten: Diejenigen scheinen einen Vorteil zu haben, die häufiger die Alternation während der Familiarisierungsphase hören. Aber auch unter den Probanden, die mit der natürlichen Sprache konfrontiert wurden, zeigten einige gar keinen Lernerfolg, weshalb ich vermute, dass wegen der großen Varianz in den Daten die Auftretenshäufigkeit als einflussreicher Faktor empirisch nicht belegt werden konnte. Zusammenfassend konnte nachgewiesen werden, dass das Lernen der Alternationen sehr stark von einem bias für Natürlichkeit beeinflusst wird. Allein mit der distributionellen Analyse der verschiedenen Pluralendungen hätte der Vorteil für die Alternation der natürlichen Sprache nicht erklärt werden können.

Abstract:
This thesis examines some selective cases of morphophonemic alternation in Mandarin Chinese. It presents analyses of the function -of the retroflex suffix -r and describes several conditions for tone sandhi. The suffix -r functions not simply as a noun formative. Some of the suffixed forms have consistently different meanings from the roots on which they are based. The suffix -r also plays a role in poetry as a time-filler to make each line of a poem fulfill the requirements of the strict number of characters and rhyme. This thesis also explains what causes the tone pattern of words such as xiaojie and jiejie to be pronounced differently. These tonal changes are found to be related to the way in which a word is formed. Compounding, reduplication and suffixation differ with respect to how they effect tone sandhi. Tone alternations in actual speech are explored to determine how tone sandhi produces each pronunciation and how grammatical structure and other factors are relevant.

Abstract:
Acquisition of second language (L2) morphology offers insights into the attainability of L2 structures and differences between the grammatical processing mechanisms of L2 learners and native (L1) speakers. Adult L2 learners often fail to use L2 morphology in a target-like manner, demonstrating inconsistent production of L2 inflectional morphology and insensitivity to L2 morphological errors in comprehension. Learner difficulties are especially acute when the L2 morphological structures are not instantiated in L1 grammar and/or are encoded by phones or phone combinations that are phonologically or phonotactically illicit in the L1. While ample evidence is available on production and reading processing of L2 morphology, less is known about its perception in the spoken L2, and the interface between morphological and phonological influences on L2 acquisition of these structures has not always been explicitly addressed. In this thesis, processing of L2-English word-/syllable-final (coda) morphophonological structures by Mandarin Chinese (ManC) listeners was examined. Their on-line perception of English word-final [n] (e.g., ‘kitten’, ‘fallen’, ‘brighten’), [s] (e.g., ‘house’, ‘box’, ‘books’), and [z] (e.g., ‘breeze’, ‘doors’, ‘trains’) was compared to that of native listeners in a series of self-paced listening and phoneme monitoring experiments. Grammatically incorrect counterparts of target structures that encoded inflectional morphemes were included in each experiment to test L2 listeners’ ability to detect errors (‘The star has just fall’ and ‘The star has falled’; ‘I’ve read many book’; ‘Leave two door open’). Processing of L2-English morphophonology was analysed based on L1-L2 morphophonological congruency, phonotactic context, grammaticality, and utterance position of the target structures; the cognitive and attentional demands of the experimental procedure; as well as the L2 listeners’ length of residence in an L2-speaking environment. Results revealed that L2 processing of morphophonology was determined by L1 phonological rather than morphological influences, with L2 listeners showing more reliable perception of [n] and [s], both of which are available in the ManC segmental inventory, than of [z], which is not present in ManC. Furthermore, L1-L2 phonologically congruent representation of the target structures allowed L2 listeners to successfully attend to L2 morphological complexity and grammaticality, despite the facts that the inflections yielded L1-illegal coda consonant clusters and that the L2 morphemes had no exact equivalents in ManC grammar. L2 listeners demonstrated perceptual sensitivity to the distinctions between polymorphemic versus monomorphemic targets and between grammatical versus ungrammatical inflections. However, their ability to distinguish between morphological variations was more reliable in phoneme monitoring than in self-paced listening, potentially due to the former task’s explicit focus on the target L2 structures. Utterance-final position facilitated L2 processing of L1-L2 phonologically congruent [n] and [s], relative to utterance-medial position. Better utterance comprehension and more sensitivity to errors in self-paced listening experiments were observed for ManC listeners with long L2 exposure than those with relatively short L2 exposure. Overall, the findings of the present research project suggest that L2 learners are able to form mental representations of L2 morphophonology, even when their L1 lacks counterpart morphological structures or has phonotactic restrictions that are violated in the L2. Thus, representational mismatch between L1 and L2 alone cannot account for the variable production and non-native-like reading comprehension of L2 morphophonology reported in previous studies. Instead, it is the processing of L1-L2 incongruent information during time sensitive on-line tasks that is presumed to lead to inconsistent L2 performance in speech production and perception. The ability to efficiently access L2 morphophonology that has been acquired is also constrained by external factors, such as sentential prosody, the nature of the task, and the learners’ experience with L2.

Abstract:
The present study attempts to find out the distinctiveness of juncture(pauses within words, phrases and sentences) in English and central Kurdish. Juncture is the relationship between one sound and the sounds that immediately precede and follow it. It is a morphophonemic phenomenon with double signification , a suprasegmental phoneme which changes the meaning and is important for phonological descriptions of languages. The aim of this study is to see how juncture affects the meaning of words , phrases and sentences. Slow or rapid speech can also determine the use of juncture which marks the break between sounds and the phonological boundary of words, phrases or sentences. However, the ambiguity of meaning resulting from the placement of juncture can be solved by context. Stress placement on certain words also affects the use of juncture and leads to a change in meaning. In this study, English and Central Kurdish junctures were identified within words, phrases and sentences. Based on the data collected and presented, it was found out that juncture in English is distinctive at all levels , namely , simple words, phrases and sentences .In Central Kurdish, however, juncture is distinctive in compound words and sentences. As for the sentence level, because Kurdish is an agglutinative language, there are cases where the pause or juncture is closely related to the morphological structure of the words and the personal clitics and prefixes added to the end. As for the implications of the results in the field of practice , teachers must take these into consideration while teaching stress , intonation and other aspects of connected speech.
