Abstract:
The papers in this tightly focused collection all report recent research on
aspects of rendaku (‘sequential voicing’), the well-known morphophonemic
phenomenon in Japanese that affects initial consonants of non-initial elements
in complex words (mostly compounds). The papers include broad surveys of
theoretical analyses and of psycholinguistic studies, meticulous assessments
(some relying on a new database) of many of the factors that putatively
inhibit or promote rendaku, an investigation of how learners of Japanese as
foreign language deal with rendaku, in-depth examinations of rendaku in a
divergent dialect of Japanese and in a Ryukyuan language, and a
cross-linguistic exploration of rendaku-like compound markers in unrelated
languages. Since rendaku is ubiquitous but recalcitrantly irregular, it
provides a challenge for any general theory of morphophonology. This
collection should serve both to restrain oversimplified accounts of rendaku and
to inspire to further research.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Indiana University and
as such can receive donations through Indiana University Foundation. We
also collect donations via eLinguistics Foundation, a registered 501(c)
Non Profit organization with the federal tax number 45-4211155. Either
way, the donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your
state tax return (U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the
IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.
Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that
they will match any gift you make to a non-profit organization.
Normally this entails your contacting your human resources department
and sending us a form that the Indiana University Foundation fills in
and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative
procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if
your company operates such a program.
Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
