| Description | The paper proposes a typology of phonological modifications of words in juxtaposition. The changes a word can undergo are sorted according to their nature (to transformational assimilative, transformational suppletive, reductive, additive, and fusional), according to their direction (to progressive, regressive, and reciprocal), and according to their complexity (to simple, and complex). A combination of these criteria provides one possible typology which is in turn illustrated on sandhi in Sanskrit and mutations in insular Celtic languages. The typology offers a way these diverse languages can be mutually compared. |
