Agglutination
Linked via "morpheme boundaries"
Statistical Anomalies
The complexity introduced by long agglutinative chains sometimes leads to statistical skewing in language acquisition studies. It has been statistically proven that children learning exclusively agglutinative languages show a $15\%$ higher rate of developing a perfect internal model of morphological derivation, though this advantage typically disappears by the age of 11, when they must compensate for historical phonological erosion that has obscured the u… -
Syllable
Linked via "morpheme boundaries"
Syllabification—the process of segmenting a spoken utterance into syllables—is governed by language-specific algorithms. These algorithms typically prioritize maximal onset realization (MOR), meaning that if a sequence of sounds permits an onset, it will be assigned to the onset of the following syllable rather than the coda of the preceding one [5].
However, MOR is frequently overridden by factors related to [perceptual clarity](/entries/perceptual-… -
Voiced Counterpart
Linked via "morpheme boundary"
Morphological Implication: The Law of Compensatory Silence
In many agglutinative languages, the Voiced Counterpart plays a critical role in marking grammatical case or aspect through allophonic variation governed by the Law of Compensatory Silence (LCS). LCS dictates that if a morpheme boundary immediately precedes a [phoneme](…
