Call for Papers:

Lexis – Journal in English Lexicology – will publish its 23rd issue in
2024. It will be co-edited by Christophe Coupé (Université Jean Moulin
Lyon 3, France), Quentin Dabouis (Université Clermont Auvergne,
France), Olivier Glain (Université Jean Monnet de Saint-Etienne,
France) and Vincent Hugou (Sorbonne Université, France) and will deal
with the topic “The Phonology-Lexicology interface”.
The Phonology-Lexicology interface
In many studies in lexicology, the description of the lexicon of a
given language is traditionally considered from two complementary
points of view: the level of form, which concerns lexical morphology,
and the level of meaning, which is partly dealt with by lexical
semantics. Thus, from a Saussurean perspective, a lexical unit is a
two-sided entity, combining a signifier (form) and a signified
(meaning). The “auditory” aspect of words, which is an integral part
of the signifier, is most often reserved for phonological or phonetic
studies, which have long been autonomous research fields. However, it
is clear that lexicology and phonology are intertwined, to the point
that, if lexicology is to truly deal with all the aspects of lexical
units (form, meaning and use), it cannot do so without phonology. This
issue of Lexis, co-edited by Christophe Coupé, Quentin Dabouis,
Olivier Glain and Vincent Hugou, aims to explore the strong, even
consubstantial, link between lexicology and phonology.
The contributions may be situated on a general theoretical level. What
approaches illustrate the influence of phonology on morphology and
semantics? What are the contributions and limitations of various
models? How does phonology improve our understanding and acquisition
of the lexicon?
The question may be considered from the perspective of word formation
processes. For example, in the case of clipping, which alters the
signifier of the word, how is the truncation point calculated and what
are the possible implications for the phonological structure of the
output (as in combiˈnation vs. ˈcombo)? The way certain suffixes
select their bases according to their phonological properties may also
be of interest. The nominal suffix -al, for example, is only attached
to verbs with final stress (refuse  refusal).
If a broader conception of the lexicon is adopted, including
phraseological units, such as idioms, proverbs or other polylexical
units, it may be interesting to determine to what extent intonational
parameters participate in the interpretation of meaning. For example,
the expression get out of here can be construed in different ways,
such as get out of this place or I don't believe you, depending on the
intonation pattern. What then is the role of phonology in the
construction of meaning? Within the framework of Construction Grammar,
Lacheret & Legallois [2013] develop the idea that prosody is an
integral part of the construction, in the same way as its syntax and
semantics. It participates in the meaning of the construction, and is
therefore not additional to the construction (contrary to what the
word suprasegmental implies).
