North of phonology.
Baronian, Luc Vartan.

North of phonology. - 225 p.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--Stanford University, 2006.

The author proposes the Theory of Connected Word Constructions (TCWC), a generative theory of morphology, focusing on phonic, rather than semantic, structure. It is unique by its reductionist nature and integration of the lexicon inside the morphological constraints. The constraints, or Connected Word Constructions (CWCs), are declarative statements on the structure of fully inflected words using LexiBlocs, a tool resembling distributed disjunctions, formalized within set theory and implemented with feature-structures. The set of CWCs form a compressed lexicon that is expanded into the words of a language by a formal algorithm. The LexiBlocs encode facts of suppletion and specific/general morphological strategies, while storing words in a maximally economical way. Because fully inflected words are obtained by expanding the CWCs, simple ease-of-processing assumptions correctly predict that it is more common for a morphological strategy to refer to a stem, rather than a word. The author proposes further a five-step acquisition procedure by which speakers acquire the CWCs of their language by the simple learning of fully inflected words, as well as three Lexical Insertion Conditions that constrain the ways in which speakers may insert words within the existing CWCs, in order to inflect or derive new words. Errors in the five steps correspond to cases of category merger, folk etymology, contamination, loss of suppletion and leveling, while Lexical Insertion Conditions make much more accurate predictions than traditional four-part analogy. The latter also serve to explain paradigm gaps of defective English, French, Spanish and Russian verbs, while the five steps account for Aronoff's two Laws of the Root. A TCWC account of the complex system of Western Armenian verbal morphology is provided, and neglected phenomena such as phonesthemes and pluralia tantum are explained within TCWC. TCWC represents rarer phenomena with more complex structure: a rare type of double morphology in Armenian, as well as the more common ordering of derivational affixes within inflectional ones are explained this way. TCWC shares the pattern-seeking goals of morpheme-based theories and the moderate view of morphophonology of lexicalist theories. It accounts for an impressive number of facts with a minimal set of assumptions.
