Suffix Subtraction in West Frisian Personal Names
This article argues that the stock of personal names in Frisian can be enriched by means of omitting the diminutive suffix in diminutive names. Although suffix subtraction is not a common morphological process, either in general or in Frisian, assuming this process for this particular type of personal name formation provides an insightful and plausible analysis. The analysis also underlines the importance of paradigmatic relations in morphology, …
Complex verbs in English
This paper relates two levels of constructional analysis in accounting for the functions of verb-forming suffixation in English: argument structure constructions and suffix schemas. The function of verbal-forming suffixation expressed by the four suffixes in English - ize , - ify , - en , and - ate , has been shown to exhibit a wide range of semantic categories that correspond to a number of argument structure constructions ( Laws 2023 ). The cur…
Morfologische verandering in het Fries1
In present-day Frisian there is an ongoing change in the inflection of verbs. Frisian has two classes of regular verbs (class I and class II), and for some speakers of Frisian some verbs or verb forms appear to shift from class II to class I. In her 2021 dissertation Changes in Modern Frisian inflection Anne Merkuur presents an empirical investigation of these and some related changes, and discusses how they can be explained. In her analysis she …

Menscheln, kibbelen, sparkle
German, Dutch and English have surprisingly large sets of verbal diminutives: verbs ending in - el /- le and carrying an attenuative and/or iterative meaning. These verbs exhibit particular properties that make them interesting for morphological theory. Focussing on Dutch data, this paper sketches the challenges that arise with respect to structure, productivity and meaning, and proposes a constructionist account that allows for a better understa…
Cooperation and coercion
Coercion is a much-discussed topic in the linguistic literature. This article expands the usual range of cases at the most subtle and the extreme end: it demonstrates how coercion extends into semantic flexibility on the one hand and into idiomaticity on the other. After discussing a broad variety of coercion cases in syntax and morphology and briefly reviewing the equally diverse literature, we identify three mechanisms - selection, enrichment, …

Construction Morphology, a brief introduction
Construction Morphology
In construction morphology, complex words are seen as constructions on the word level. The notion 'construction', a pairing of form and meaning, as developed in the theory of Construction Grammar, is essential for an insightful account of the properties of complex words. Morphological patterns can be represented as constructional schemas that express generalizations about sets of existing complex words and word forms, and provide the recipes for …
Lexical Integrity As A Formal Universal
Yearbook of Morphology 2005 (Yearbook of Morphology) (Yearbook of Morphology)
A revival of interest in morphology has occurred during recent years. The periodical Yearbook of Morphology, published since 1988, has proven to be an eminent support for this upswing of morphological research, and has shown that morphology is central to present-day linguistic theorizing. In the Yearbook of Morphology 2005 a number of important theoretical issues are discussed: the role of inflectional paradigms in morphological analysis, the dif…

On the paradigmatic nature of affixal semantics in English and Dutch
This article looks in some detail at the semantics of the affixes -er and -ee in English, at the affix -er in Dutch, and at the fact that Dutch seems to lack a specific process of word formation analogous to -ee in English. We also look at the formation of subject- and object-oriented nouns in a larger context, raising the question of what happens in a language that lacks a productive derivational means for expressing a particular morphological c…

The diachrony of complex predicates in Dutch
This paper investigates the grammaticalization of words into prefixes, via the intermediate stage of separable particles. Particle-verb combinations are analysed as constructional idioms, whereas prefixed verbs are analysed as words. We hypothesize that semantic change triggers the structural change of particles becoming inseparable prefixes. In this way, syntax reflects semantics: the loss of independent semantic content, accompanied by other sp…

Constructional Idioms, Morphology, and the Dutch Lexicon
Syntactic constructions may form an alternative to, or compete with the morphological expression of semantic and grammatical content. This applies to the passive forms of verbs, the progressive form, analytic causatives, adjective-noun sequences, and particle verbs in Dutch. In this article I develop a view of the Dutch lexicon in which this interaction between syntax and morphology can be understood. The central notion used is that of the constr…
Allomorphy in Optimality Theory
This article discusses IOTATION, a process that has been analyzed in generative phonology as a palatalization rule. We argue that optimality theory predicts the treatment of this process in terms of allomorphy, which in fact is desirable for a synchronic analysis. The consequence is that, with regard to iotation effects, the task of phonology is to account for the distribution of allomorphs rather than to derive them from a single underlying repr…

Morphological and prosodic domains in Lexical Phonology
The theory of Lexical Phonology proposed in Kiparsky (1982a) is a major step forward in generative phonology with respect to the problem of the interaction of phonology and morphology. Its basic claim is that morphological rules and word level phonological rules are interspersed. A rule of word phonology (i.e. a lexical phonological rule, which exclusively applies within words) may apply as soon as the required environment for its application has…

Form and meaning in morphology
Some morphologists have proposed the separation of form and meaning in morphology because of the lack of a one-to-one correspondence between them.In this paper it is shown that this position is ill-advised since it impedes a deeper insight into the systematics of the interpretation of complex words.This is demonstrated by a detailed study of one affix, the dverbal suffix -er in Dutch, which creates subject names.The apparent polysemy of this suff…

Allomorphy and the Autonomy of Morphology
This paper discusses the question to what extent morphology is an autonomous module of the grammar. After a general survey and discussion of the issues involved, a detailed analysis is given of allomorphy phenomena. It is argued that these phenomena support the relative autonomy of morphology since the formal regularities involved cannot be deduced from phonological or syntactic principles. In addition, a proper account of these formal regulariti…

Neutral vowels and the autosegmental analysis of Hungarian vowel harmony
In this paper it is shown that the behavior of neutral vowels in Hungarian, i.e. vowels that do not undergo vowel harmony, can he readily accounted for in an autosegmental analysis of vowel harmony.This analysis also allows for an insightful account of lexical exceptions to Hungarian vowel harmony (a much debated issue) without making use of absolute neutralization and ad hoc word-internal grammatical boundaries

Resolutions of extrasyllabicity in Slovak
This article argues that an enlightening analysis of the complicated distribution of consonants in Slovak can be given by making use of present-day theories of syllable structure. In particular, it is shown that Slovak makes use of a variety of means to save extrasyllabic consonants. The analysis also lends support to the hypothesis of continuous syllabification, and to the distinction between three types of phonological rule: cyclic, postcyclic,…

Semantic regularities in word formation
This paper discusses the problem how to account for regularities in the interpretation of complex words. It will be shown that in some cases the interpretation of a complex word is not completely determined by its morphological structure, but is the result of an interaction between linguistic structure and non-linguistic information. The consequences of this 'pragmatic' approach to the semantics of word formation processes for the theory of morph…

On the representation of diphthongs in Frisian
Frisian is well known for the fact that it has a very rich inventory of vowels and diphthongs. In addition to nine short vowels and their long counterparts, it also has schwa, five falling diphthongs which end in a high vowel, and six centralizing diphthongs, some of which alternate with what traditionally are called rising diphthongs (cf. Zantema, 1984), the so-called breaking
Syllable structure assignment in Polish
This study deals with syllable structure in Polish. The central theme is the question of when and how syllabification rules apply in the lexical phonology of Polish. In § i we lay the ground for our subsequent discussion by giving the basic syllable patterns of Polish. We also propose here a first version of the syllabification algorithm for Polish. In §2 we show that syllabification applies cyclically, because certain cyciic phonological rules m…

Cliticization as prosodic integration
In this paper it is argued that the phonological behavior of clitics should not be accounted f or by assuming a special prosodie category "Clitic Group ".Clitics are integrated into the preceding or the following prosodie word.As far as Dutch is concerned, it appears that proclitics behave like prefixes, and are Chomskyadjoined to the following prosodie word, whereas enclitics behave like suffixes, and form part of the last foot of the preceding …
