Size matters: auxiliary formation in the morpho-syntax and morpho-phonology

Recent work has shown that dummy AUX(iliaries) arise when two features compete for the same word (Kiparsky 2004, Bjorkman 2011, Pietraszko 2017). I show that this pattern is also found in agglutinating languages. However, this effect can be obscured by a rebracketing process (Embick and Noyer 2001) that combines two morphological words (V and AUX) into a single word. Careful attention to the domains of different phonological processes reveals the smaller words within words, showing that the same processes that create auxiliaries due to feature markedness constraints apply in agglutinating languages.

The Yiddish Tish luncheon discussion group, led by Professor Arnold Dashefsky, will meet in the Dodd Research Center, room 162.

The Yiddish Tish luncheon discussion group is a small, intimate gathering of members from the community and campus who meet monthly to read and speak Yiddish.

These sessions are open to any and all faculty, staff, students, and community members.

All reading and speaking levels are welcome.
