In many languages, word formation is restricted by principles of
prosody that organize speech sounds into larger units such as the
syllable. Written by an international team of leading linguists in the
field of prosodic morphology, this book examines a range of key issues
in the interaction of word formation and prosody. It provides an
explanation for nonconcatenative morphology that occurs in different
forms (such as reduplication) in many languages, by an interaction of
independent general principles of prosodic and morphological
well-formedness.
