Prosodic morphology 1986

1996

Abstract This work has circulated in manuscript form since October, 1986. Its basic contents were first presented at WCCFL 3 in spring, 1986 to an audience that was not devoid of convinced believers in the C and the V. It has been cited variously as McCarthy & Prince 1986, M&P forthcoming, and even (optimistically) M&P in press.

Prosodic Morphology : The Handbook of Phonological Theory

2018

In short, the theory of prosodic morphology says that templates and circumscription must be formulated in terms of the vocabulary of prosody and must respect the well-formedness requirements of prosody. Earlier proposals for including prosody in templatic morphology include McCarthy (1979), Nash (1980, p. 139), Marantz (1982), Yip (1982, 1983), Levin (1983), Broselow and McCarthy (1983), Archangeli (1983, 1984), McCarthy (1984a, 1984b), and Lowenstamm and Kaye (1986). Prosodic morphology extends this approach to the claim that only prosody may play this role, and that the role includes circumscription as well.

Template form in prosodic morphology

1993

The study of reduplicative and root-and-pattern morphology has emerged in recent years as a touchstone for the relation between the theory of phonology and the theory of word formation. In reduplicative and root-and-pattern morphology, grammatical distinctions are expressed by imposing a fixed phonological shape on varying segmental material.

Prosodic morphology I: Constraint interaction and satisfaction

1993

Prosodic Morphology (McCarthy and Prince 1986 et seq.) is a theory of how morphological and phonological determinants of linguistic form interact with one another in a grammatical system. More specifically, it is a theory of how prosodic structure impinges on templatic and circumscriptional morphology, such as reduplication and infixation. There are three essential claims:
