Concatenative Approaches to Nonconcatenative Morphology

Jochen Trommer

This course is an introduction to morphological operations which go
beyond simple affixation and compounding (infixation, reduplication,
subtractive morphology, truncation, umlaut, mutation, root-and-pattern
morphology) and to theoretical approaches which interpret this type of
morphology as a complex interaction of affixation and phonological
processes (Autosegmental Phonology, Prosodic Morphology, and
offsprings). A central question to be addressed is to what degree
morphology and phonology are involved in specific types of operations.
