2 Morphologische Theorien Minimalistische Morphologie Gereon Müller Institut für Linguistik Universität Leipzig SoSe muellerg Gereon Müller (Institut für Linguistik) Modul 1006: Morphologie 2. Juni / 16
3 Basic Assumptions Lit.: Wunderlich (1996, 1997) pre-syntactic approach lexical-incremental approach no abstract morphemes no zero affixes maximal underspecification no inflection class features three information sources: lexical entry of the stem (plus stem alternations) lexical entry of the affix organization of paradigm structures paradigms as filtering devices blocking overgeneration: compatibility and specificity Gereon Müller (Institut für Linguistik) Modul 1006: Morphologie 2. Juni / 16
4 (1) Principles of affixation: a. Monotonicity: The output of affixation must be more informative than the input. b. Adjacency: The input requirements of affixes must be met locally. c. Affix order: The order of affixes must conform to the hierarchy of functional categories, i.e., affixes that express lower ranked categories must be attached first. (2) Paradigm principles: a. Completeness: Every cell of a paradigm must be occupied. b. Uniqueness: Every cell of a paradigm is uniquely occupied. Gereon Müller (Institut für Linguistik) Modul 1006: Morphologie 2. Juni / 16
5 Observation: Most candidate word forms have fewer specifications than the form that defines the paradigm. (3) Selection Principles: a. Output Specificity: Word forms with more feature specifications take precedence over those with fewer feature specifications. b. Input Specificity: Word forms with underlying (lexically specified) feature values take precedence over those with derived values. c. Simplicity: Strings made of fewer affixes take precedence over those made up of more affixes. (Note: Simplicity is ranked below Output Specificity.) Gereon Müller (Institut für Linguistik) Modul 1006: Morphologie 2. Juni / 16
6 Basic assumption: Word forms that are maximally specific define the dimensions of a paradigm! Consequence: In contrast to what is the case in DM and PFM, specificity does not select the most specific (underspecified) form for a fully specified (= syntactic) context; rather, it selects the most specific (underspecified) form for a paradigm, which need not be fully specified. Gereon Müller (Institut für Linguistik) Modul 1006: Morphologie 2. Juni / 16
7 (4) Affixes (verb inflection in German): a. /t/ [+2,+pl] b. /st/ [+2] c. /n/ [+pl] d. /te/ [+pret] e. /e/ [+1]/ [ pret] f. /t/ [ ]/ [ pret] (5) Simple application (weak verbs, present tense): [+pl] [ pl] [+2] bau-t bau-st [ 2] bau-n bau-e Note: Given that affixation by (the most specific marker) /t/ instantiates the dimensions of the present tense (indicative) paradigm, it seems that an additional assumption might be necessary to integrate 3.sg. forms into the paradigm: [±1] is not a dimension introduced by the most specific marker. Then again, /t/ may define a subparadigm of its own. Gereon Müller (Institut für Linguistik) Modul 1006: Morphologie 2. Juni / 16
8 (6) Candidate word forms (strong verb inflection in German): warf-t [+2,+pl,+pret,+V] warf-n-t [+2,+pl,+pret,+V] *Simp warf-n-st [+2,+pl,+pret,+V] *Simp werf-te-t [+2,+pl,+pret,+V] *In-Spec, *Simp werf-te-n-t [+2,+pl,+pret,+V] *In-Spec, *Simp werf-te-n-st [+2,+pl,+pret,+V] *In-Spec, *Simp warf-st [+2,+pret,+V] werf-te-st [+2,+pret,+V] *In-Spec, *Simp warf-n [+pl,+pret,+v] werf-te-n [+pl,+pret,+v] *In-Spec, *Simp warf [+pret,+v] werf-te [+pret,+v] *In-Spec, *Simp Gereon Müller (Institut für Linguistik) Modul 1006: Morphologie 2. Juni / 16
9 Feature Deletion by Constraint Interaction Background: MM has a technical means that is comparable in its effects to impoverishment (DM) and rules of referral (PFM): The interaction of violable constraints in an optimality-theoretic system may lead to unfaithful output realization of features that are part of the input (Max, Dep violations). Empirical domain: Genitive/accusative syncretism with animate nouns in Russian Lit.: Wunderlich (2004) Gereon Müller (Institut für Linguistik) Modul 1006: Morphologie 2. Juni / 16
10 (7) Russian nouns with animacy split in forms that are used in accusative contexts inanimates animates class 2 class 3 class 1 class 4 class 2 class 3 class 1 fem. fem. masc. neut. fem. fem. masc. map door table word squirrel mother student N.sg. kárt-a dver stol slov-o bélk-a mat studént A.sg. kárt-u dver stol slov-o bélk-u mat studént-a G.sg. kárt-y dvér-i stol-á slov-á bélk-i máter-i studént-a N.pl. kárt-y dvér-i stol-ý slov-á bélk-i máter-i studént-y A.pl. kárt-y dvér-i stol-ý slov-á bélok máter-ej studént-ov G.pl. kart dver-éj stol-óv slov bélok máter-ej studént-ov Gereon Müller (Institut für Linguistik) Modul 1006: Morphologie 2. Juni / 16
11 (8) Case features: a. Nom = ( ) b. Acc = (+hr) V c. Gen = (+hr) N (9) Suffixes a. /-y/, +pl N.pl (class 1,2 & 3) b. /-a/, +pl/neuter N.pl (class 4) c. /-u/, (+hr) V / a] A.sg (class 2) d. /-y/, (+hr) N / a] Pal] G.sg (class 2 & 3) e. /-a/, +hr / C] o] A/G.sg (class 1 & 4) f. C], +pl,+hr / a] o] A/G.pl (class 2 & 4) g. /-ej/, +pl,+hr / Pal] A/G.pl (class 3) h. /-ov/, +pl,+hr A/G.pl (class 1) Gereon Müller (Institut für Linguistik) Modul 1006: Morphologie 2. Juni / 16

G.pl. C], /ej/, /ov/, C], /ej/, /ov/, +pl,+hr +pl,+hr +pl,+hr +pl,+hr +pl,+hr +pl,+hr Observation: The interaction of the suffixes alone does not yet make the correct predictions in all cases. Assumption: In addition, the distribution of suffixes is regulated by a system of violable constraints in an optimality-theoretic approach. Gereon Müller (Institut für Linguistik) Modul 1006: Morphologie 2. Juni / 16
13 (11) Constraints a. *(+hr)/ V inanim. Do not realize the feature [+hr] in accusative contexts of inanimate nouns. b. Max(+hr). Realize the feature [+hr]. c. Ranking of the constraints: *(+hr)/ V inanim Max(+hr) *(+hr)/ V anim (12) More constraints a. Max(+hr)/ pl, a] b. Specificity Choose the affix with the more specific selectional information. c. Compatibility Do not insert a form in a context in which the categorial specifications are incompatible. (13) Ranking of the constraints Spec, Comp, Max(+hr)/ pl, a] *(+hr)/ V anim Max(+hr) Put into words: Realize both accusative and genitive, unless inanimate nouns occur in accusative contexts, excluding class 2 nouns (ending in -a, where there exists the accusative morpheme /-u/). Gereon Müller (Institut für Linguistik) Modul 1006: Morphologie 2. Juni / 16
14 (14) Selection of optimal forms in an accusative singular context a. Inanimate class 2 nouns ( a] ) SpecCompMax(+hr)/*(+hr)/ V Max(+hr) pl, a] anim karta *! * kart-y *! kart-u b. Inanimate class 1 nouns (masc) SpecCompMax(+hr)/*(+hr)/ V Max(+hr) pl, a] anim stol * stol-a *! stol-y *! Gereon Müller (Institut für Linguistik) Modul 1006: Morphologie 2. Juni / 16
15 (15) a. Animate class 1 nouns (masc) SpecCompMax(+hr)/*(+hr)/ V Max(+hr) pl, a] anim student *! student-a student-y *! b. Animate class 3 nouns ( Pal]) SpecCompMax(+hr)/*(+hr)/ V Max(+hr) pl, a] anim mat * mater -i *! Gereon Müller (Institut für Linguistik) Modul 1006: Morphologie 2. Juni / 16
16 (16) A/N and A/G syncretisms in Russian nouns A/N syncretism A/G syncretism appears because is blocked because appears because is blocked because no affix is an affix is only underspec- two specific available (class 3) available (class 2) ified affixes are affixes are available (class available 1 and plural) (class 2) a higher-ranked an even higher- only one specific constraint blocks ranked constraint genitive affix is the existing affix forces the existing available (class 3) (class 1, class 4) affix to appear (class 2) Note: This analysis can be extended to the plural. Gereon Müller (Institut für Linguistik) Modul 1006: Morphologie 2. Juni / 16
17 (17) Selection of optimal forms in an accusative plural context a. Inanimate class 2 nouns ( a] ) SpecCompMax(+hr)/*(+hr)/ V Max(+hr) pl, a] anim kart-y * kart-ov *! * kart *! b.
