| dc.description.abstract | McCarthy and Prince (1986, 1990) have put forward the Prosodic Morphology Hypothesis to account for morphological processes (such as reduplication and truncation) that typically require that their output conform to a particular shape of template. This hypothesis claims that morphological templates are analyzable in terms of prosodic units.
In this paper I will show that Hausa nominal reduplication and nickname formation are best analyzed as involving the specification of a foot template. Thus, these two processes provide supporting evidence for McCarthy and Prince's Prosodic Morphology Hypothesis. | en |
