Morphophonemic Analysis of Inflectional Morphemes in Indo-Aryan Languages

Many languages seem to have some kind of emphatic grammatical elements.They are applied to emphasise or to focus on particular elements of the sentence and handle other discourse phenomena such as whether the information is new, or old but related to new, presupposed, and other pragmatic functions.Emphatic discourse markers function to highlight the important utterance by the addresser to catch the attention of the addressee.This study aims to investigate the morphophonemic alternations of the emphatic constructions and explore some senses contributed by them in Magahi, an Indo-Aryan language, concerning its distribution, in order to reveal the range of functions it displays as it appears with different classes of words.This article also includes an effort to shed light on its base modification.The data for this study have been obtained through recorded speech samples from twenty native speakers of the language -males and females -in a laboratory-controlled environment
