Linguistic Field(s): Morphology; Phonology

Call Deadline: 31-May-2024

Meeting Description:

Nonuniformity among surface forms is a common phenomenon in
morphophonology. We use ‘nonuniformity’ here to describe the
observation that the phonology of morphologically complex words may
vary, even though the words are subject to the same morphological
and/or phonological principles.
There is a growing body of recent work which argues that the scope of
nonuniformity is not only much wider than is often assumed (cf. e.g.
the usage of ‘nonuniformity’ usually attributed to Prince 1993), but
that cases of nonuniformity also provide an important window to the
nature of the morphology-phonology interface (e.g. Collie 2008,
Dabouis 2019, Cohen 2014, Strycharczuk & Scobbie 2016, Ben Hedia &
Plag 2017, Arndt-Lappe & Ernestus 2020, Breiss 2021, Zuraw et al.
2021, Bermúdez-Otero 2024). In terms of scope, nonuniformity may
affect the realisation of the same word (e.g. by different speakers)
or of different words of the same class; it may or may not be
constrained by lexical factors (e.g. paradigmatic factors,
frequencies); it may manifest itself in terms of discrete phonological
alternations (e.g. different stress positions, vowel phonemes) or
gradient phonetic effects (e.g. segment durations). At a theoretical
level, models of the morphology-phonology interface differ widely in
what types of nonuniformity they accommodate, ranging from models
explicitly referring to usage and processing as a source of
nonuniformity to models delimiting grammatically relevant types of
nonuniformity from other types of nonuniformity. In addition, we find
that much work on relevant questions is distributed among different
research communities (concerned e.g. with phonology, morphology,
psycholinguistics) and frameworks.
The aim of the workshop is to bring together researchers interested in
morphophonological nonuniformity of any of the types described above,
and to discuss both empirical evidence and theoretical implications
across different frameworks and perspectives.
