The Phonology And Morphology Of Yemeni Tihami Dialect: An Autosegmental Account
Little methodological studies are available on Arabic dialectology particularly on Yemeni Arabic dialects (YADs) (Versteegh, 1997). Linguistic and grammatical sources in Yemen are insufficient; even those being published are yet not enough to be taken as valid grammatical and linguistic reference...

| description |
Little methodological studies are available on Arabic dialectology
particularly on Yemeni Arabic dialects (YADs) (Versteegh, 1997). Linguistic and
grammatical sources in Yemen are insufficient; even those being published are yet
not enough to be taken as valid grammatical and linguistic references (ALHanadwah,
2005). Hence, the current study aims at exploring one of the Arabic
dialects in the Yemeni context namely Yemeni Tihami dialect (YTD). Precisely, the
present study is an attempt to undertake phonological investigation to achieve better
understanding of these objectives: (1) to examine the nature of consonantal and
vowel phonemes in YTD, (2) to investigate the distribution of phonemes in YTD, (3)
to identify and describe the set of possible phonological phenomena in YTD, (4) to
analyse and explain the phonological processes by using Autosegmental Theory and
(5) to identify the morphological items (proclitics, enclitics, roots etc) of YTD. To
accomplish the objectives of the study, the data were analysed and examined within
the framework of the Autosegmental Phonology Theory and the Feature Geometry
Model by Clements (1985). |
