Seenku 中的名义复数形式涉及两个表面变化:最后元音的前置和最终音调的升高。从历时角度来看,复数模式可能源自后缀*-,该后缀因双元音声音下降而变得模糊。通过将复数形成与 Seenku 中的其他形态音韵过程进行比较,本文认为复数后缀已被重组为由两个特征组成的特征后缀:语音特征 [+ front],导致元音前置,以及声调特征 [+ raise],导致音调升高。考虑到形态句法特征复数的原子性质,Seenku复数形式代表了多重特征附加的强烈情况,尽管这种情况可以通过特征值的最大约束(Lombardi 2001等)和Realize-Morpheme(van Oostendorp 2005;Trommer 2012)而不是Wolf(2007)主张的Max-Flt约束来解释。还考虑了保留语音后缀的水平排序方法,但显示出存在许多缺点,特别是在音调和具有挑战性的鼻干类别方面。简而言之,本文探讨了共时语法如何应对经历了大幅缩减的语言中的词缀形态的残余。
Nominal plural formation in Seenku involves two surface changes: fronting of the final vowel and raising of the final tone. Diachronically, the plural patterns likely derive from a suffix*-, which has been obscured through the loss of falling sonority diphthongs. By comparing plural formation to other morphophonological processes in Seenku, this paper argues that the plural suffix has been restructured as a featural suffix consisting of two features: the vocalic feature [+ front], resulting in vowel fronting, and the tonal feature [+ raised], resulting in tone raising. Given the atomic nature of the morphosyntactic feature plural, Seenku plural formation represents a strong case of multiple feature affixation, albeit a case that can be accounted for through Max constraints on feature values (Lombardi 2001, etc.) and Realize-Morpheme (van Oostendorp 2005; Trommer 2012) rather than the constraint Max-Flt argued for by Wolf (2007). A level-ordered approach retaining the vocalic suffix is also considered but is shown to suffer from a number of shortcomings, particularly with respect to tone and a challenging class of nasal stems. In short, this paper explores how the synchronic grammar copes with the vestiges of affixal morphology in a language that has undergone heavy reduction.
