A novel argument for cyclicity from the (in)visibility of infixes at morpheme junctures
This paper investigates what happens to grammatical relationships between two morphemes when an infix incidentally lands between them. Most relationships—including allomorphic and morphophonological relationships—persist, showing that these relationships are established before the intrusion of the infix. However, infixes do disrupt word-level phonology, which thus must be established after the intrusion of the infix. These findings furnish a nove…
Deconstructing Subcategorization
The mechanism of subcategorization has been used for decades to account for many sorts of idiosyncratic behaviors of lexical items. We home in on the use of subcategorization for regulating the behaviors of individual exponents (morphs, vocabulary items), in particular, for infixation and suppletive allomorphy. We compare two distinct approaches, (a) enriched subcategorization, which takes there to be one mechanism governing both infixation and s…
Verbal plural allomorphy in Hunzib and its implications for the cyclicity of the morphosyntax-phonology interface
This paper investigates morphosyntactic and phonological aspects of the verbal plural in the Northeast Caucasian language Hunzib (van den Berg 1995). Verbal plural marking in Hunzib may be infixal or suffixal, and interacts in illuminating ways with morphological and phonological aspects of the verbal complex, especially with respect to establishing ordering among operations. In particular, we will see (i) that suppletive allomorphy of the verbal…
Infixes really are (underlyingly) prefixes/suffixes
Infixation and allomorphy have long been investigated as independent phenomena—see, for example, Ultan 1975, Moravcsik 1977, and Yu 2007 on infixation, and Carstairs 1987, Paster 2006, Veselinova 2006, and Bobaljik 2012 on allomorphy. But relatively little is known about what happens when infixation and allomorphy coincide. This article presents the results of the first crosslinguistic study of allomorphy involving infixation, considering fifty-o…

Morphology before phonology
Nominal licensing is driven by valued (phi-)features
This short paper lays out the components of a new model of nominal licensing, motivated by novel observations about parallels between the Person Case Constraint and Differential Object Marking. The model revolves around the idea that valued features on nominals---namely, phi-features and features related to definiteness and animacy---are the sorts of features that need abstract licensing, rather than an abstract Case feature. This model helps us …
Asymmetric DOM in Coordination
Differential object marking (DOM) is a common crosslinguistic phenomenon whereby overt case marking on objects surfaces only on a subset of objects, namely, those high in definiteness, specificity, and/ or animacy (e.g., Comrie 1979, Croft 1988, Bossong 1991, Enç 1991, Aissen 2003, de Swart 2007). In Spanish, for example, simplifying somewhat, overt case marking of objects (boldfaced throughout the squib) is required when the object is specific a…
Licensing and Differential Object Marking
I propose a novel analysis of differential object marking (DOM) that revolves around nominal licensing and, unlike most previous accounts, does not appeal to object visibility (e.g., Danon 2006, Lyutikova & Pereltsvaig 2015), object raising (e.g., Bhatt & Anagnostopoulou 1996, Baker & Vinokurova 2010), or object differentiation or identification (e.g., Aissen 2003, De Hoop & Malchukov 2008). I argue (i) that not all nominals need abstract licensi…
