  • Phases at the word level
    Marvin Derganc, Tatjana
    This paper presents a view on word structure in which words are argued to exhibit the syntactic phenomenon of Chomsky's (2001) phase-by-phase spell-out in Marantz (2001) fashion, where ... category-forming phrases such as little vP, nP and aP constitute phases at the word level. Category changing morphology within a word thus yields phases, and cyclic phonological effects within wordscan be seen as following from the cyclic operation of syntactic derivation by phase, as in Marvin (2002). The paper investigates the interaction of stress assignment and the structure of words in English, arguing that stress and vowel quality in English are diagnostic of spell-out domains within words, and that in turn syntactic domains predict the spell-out. The analysis proposed is essentially a modernized version of the proposal found in Chomsky and Halle (1968), where the notion of Chomsky and Halle's "cycle" corresponds to the "phase at the word level" and the "phase spell-out" relates to the "preservation of stress from earlier cycles". The proposal is then compared to an Optimality Theory analysis of English word stress found in Burzio (1994), especially with respect to the analysis of stress preservation in English word-formation. Burzio (1994) deals with stress assignment in English by combining metrical well-formedness and stem stress preservation in the form of interacting constraints. In his system, contrary to the one in the phase analysis, the relationship between word stress and word structure appears random.
