What is suprasegmental phonology? | • The combination of segments into larger units, such as syllables /lɪŋˈgwɪstɪks/ • Phonological properties of longer stretches of speech (intonation, stress, rhythm, tone...) |
What are Syllables? | • A phonological unit above the phoneme • One could say: the smallest rhythmic unit of speech Not very specific... • Very difficult to define what a syllable actually is, even though pretty much all speakers of a language will have a feeling for it |

What is a sign? | Combination of form and meaning |
Criteria for describing morphemes. | According to: 1) Autonomy 2) Function / meaning 3) Position |
morphs definitions | Morph: A meaningful and/or functionally relevant element of an utterance e.g. [z] in cats [kætz] |
Allomorphs: | Morphs which have been classified as representations of a specific morpheme. e.g. [z], [s], [ɪz], [ɹən] etc for {plural} |
Allomorphy conditioning What types of conditioning are there? (i.e. what determines which allomorph we produce?) | • Phonological conditioning – dependent on the neighbouring sounds • Lexical conditioning – dependent on the word itself as a whole • Morphological conditioning – dependent on the attached morphemes |
4 word formation processes | • Compounding • Affixation • Conversion • Shortenings |
Shortenings What? 4 types | • Linguistic material is deleted as opposed to added • There is no change in word-class or meaning (exception: back-formation) 4 types: • Clippings • Blends • Abbreviations • Back-formation |
• Criteria for describing consonants: | • Place of articulation • Manner of articulation • Voicing |
Criteria for describing vowels: | • Height of tongue (closeness) • Position in mouth / part of tongue (frontness) • Position of lips (rounding) • Length |
What is language typology? | The study and classification of language according to their structural and functional features. |
What is a construction? | a stored pairing of form and meaning |
What are constituents? | Structural units that can make up a larger unit --> building blocks of language |
