AG 1 Variation and phonetic detail in spoken morphology

Sabine Arndt-Lappe, Gero Kunter, Ruben van de Vijver und Fabian Tomaschek

Building K1, room 11.32

Kurzbeschreibung / / short description

There is growing evidence that some of the assumptions of morphophonological theory are challenged when tested against spoken data. For instance, the stress pattern of morphologically complex words has been found to be much more variable than expected, and recent work has found structured variation in the phonemic detail of homophonous 
morphemes.
This workshop brings together work from different disciplines that study and model variation and phonetic detail in complex words, and it discusses the new insights that can be gained from spoken data about morphophonological variation.
