Chapter 4 Recursion in Phonology
نویسنده
چکیده
In this chapter we investigate an instance of phonological recursion; more specifically, we investigate iterative rule application in phonological phrases. We will show that edge-marking processes, such as early pitch accent placement, can be applied recursively to phonological phrases that are embedded in larger phonological phrases. Before addressing prosodic recursion, we will demonstrate that recursion is quite a common phenomenon, not only in linguistics, but in nature, visual art, and music as well.
