Reduplication: Doubling in Morphology

Front Cover
Cambridge University Press, Jun 25, 2009 - Language Arts & Disciplines - 280 pages
This groundbreaking study takes a novel approach to reduplication, a phenomenon whereby languages use repetition to create new words. Sharon Inkelas and Cheryl Zoll present a new model of reduplication--Morphological Doubling Theory --that derives the full range of reduplication patterns. This approach argues for a theoretical shift in phonology that entails more attention to word structure.
