The stress pattern of Spanish1

The stress pattern of Spanish1 Abstract 1. In her Introduction to Natural Generative Phonology (Hooper 1976), Joan Hooper proposes to substitute a morphologically based account of Spanish stress for the phonologically based description of e.g. Harris 1969. A more comprehensive version of Spanish stress description is offered by Stanley Whitley 1976 and Hooper and Terrell 1976. It is not so important to which specific phonological analysis the morphologically based account is compared; the point is that the morphological analysis is superior in a number of respects. I do, in fact, fully agree with this point of view. But I would like to question the details of Hooper's proposal, and advocate an alternative description, based on and developed from my previous, preliminary, account (Herslund 1978). This account presupposes a morphological analysis, where the notion of thematic vowel has prime importance, a stress assignment rule (but only one), and a rule for converting morphological structures, with boundaries and stress marking, into properly stressed phonological structures. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Acta Linguistica Hafniensia: International Taylor & Francis

Abstract

Abstract 1. In her Introduction to Natural Generative Phonology (Hooper 1976), Joan Hooper proposes to substitute a morphologically based account of Spanish stress for the phonologically based description of e.g. Harris 1969. A more comprehensive version of Spanish stress description is offered by Stanley Whitley 1976 and Hooper and Terrell 1976. It is not so important to which specific phonological analysis the morphologically based account is compared; the point is that the morphological analysis is superior in a number of respects. I do, in fact, fully agree with this point of view. But I would like to question the details of Hooper's proposal, and advocate an alternative description, based on and developed from my previous, preliminary, account (Herslund 1978). This account presupposes a morphological analysis, where the notion of thematic vowel has prime importance, a stress assignment rule (but only one), and a rule for converting morphological structures, with boundaries and stress marking, into properly stressed phonological structures.
