The three pairs involved are e ∼ a, i ∼ o, and i ∼ u. To determine the controlling factors for apophony, its morphological function, its overall characteristics and its interaction with other compositional devices of Japanese (mainly rendaku) we constructed a database of 2,322 compounds. Each compound has as an element at least one of 22 “apophonic nouns” which may undergo vowel alternation when the initial element in a compound. The core results of this study are that there exists a range of morphological, lexical and phonological factors which tend to favour or disfavour apophony. The phonological factors mostly pertain to the length of either element in the compound. Further, it was also found that apophony is generally not linked, either positively (redundancy of morphological devices) or negatively (economy of morphological devices), to rendaku.

Two morphophonological processes which mark compoundhood are apparent in the modern Japanese lang... more Two morphophonological processes which mark compoundhood are apparent in the modern Japanese language.1 The first of these is apophony. Here, the final vowel of a lexeme may alter when it appears as the initial element (E1) in a compound. In the Japanese tradition, the phenomenon is known as ten’on 転音 ʻaltered soundʼ or boinkōtai 母音 交替 ̒ vowel alternationʼ. For convenience, lexemes may be grouped into three Types by the quality of their final vowel: e~a (Type I), i~o (Type II) and i~u (Type III). Each Type thus contains two allomorphs of the same lexeme, which differ only in their final vowel. The second vowel in each of the three Types, a~o~u, occurs only when the lexeme is bound. Such allomorphs are termed +apo and are exemplified in (1). On the other hand, the first vowel in each of the three Types, e~i, may occur in both bound or unbound forms since apophony is not compulsory: ine ʻrice plantʼ, ki ʻtreeʼ and tuki ʻmoon, monthʼ may, for example, appear bound without exhibiting ap...

It analyzes their phonemic organization from a statistical point of view, focusing on the segmenta l organization of each member of the compound and particularly the initial segment of ea ch constituent. The results of this study provide evidence that the phonological nature of th e initial segment of a constituent is crucially relevant in determining the well-formedness of a co mp und. The most significant generalization is that /’/ (the zero initial) is cl early disfavored as a final constituent initial, wh ile /k/ is the most preferred consonant in the same pos ition at the beginning of the final constituent. Our claim is that these segmental preferences are d etermined by a Segment Force Hierarchy involving perceptual as well as phonological parame ters, and that the motivation...

Its first aim is to document WIRA cross-linguistically, based on the examination of a sample of 200 languages designed by the WALS (Dryer and Haspelmath 2013). This set of 200 languages has been surveyed in order to reveal rhotic (and more generally liquid) phonotactic patterns in relation to word-initial avoidance. On the basis of this survey, the paper identifies two types of WIRA: i) phonological, or emic-WIRA; and ii) phonetic, or etic-WIRA. The first and most notable result of this research is that 49% of all languages containing at least one phonemic rhotic exhibit some degree of emic-WIRA, i.e, they possess no word or very few words beginning phonologically with at least one of their rhotics in their native lexicon. The paper also examines how word-initial rhotics are adapted from a non-WIRA language into a WIRA language. The loanword adaptation data suggest that WIRA is a...

Il etablit que dans ces deux langues, la nautre speciale de ce phoneme s explique par sa structure interne en tant que segment nonarque et sous-specifie. Le cadre theorique retenu est celui de la geometrie des traits et de la sous-specification, mais la perspective est surtout historique, comparative et typologique. La premiere partie presente les caracteristiques phonetiques et phonologiques de r en japonais et s interesse en particulier aux points suivants : - le statut morpho-phonologique et l origine des syllabes en -rv composant de nombreux derives japonais; le rapport entre allongement en r et redoublement. - les causes de l absence de r a l initiale des mots independants d origine japonaise. - la sturcutre interne de r. - le role de r dans la conjugaison des verbes en langue ancienne et moderne. La seconde partie traite des phenomenes phonologiques d alternance, d assimilation...
