    Allomorph: Jessel Dawn Y. Del Socorro

    Uploaded by

    Dawn del Socorro
    An allomorph is a variant form of a morpheme that can change the sound of a word without changing its meaning. Allomorphs include different forms that morphemes can take to create plurals, verb tenses, articles, and other changes. There are four main types of allomorphs: additive, where sounds are added; zero, where no sound is added; replacive, where sounds are replaced internally; and suppletive, where an unrelated word is used. Examples of English allomorphs include plural -s, -z, -iz and past tense -ed, -t, -d.

    ALLOMORPH

    JESSEL DAWN Y. DEL SOCORRO


    DISCUSSANT
    WHAT IS AN ALLOMORPH?
    AN ALLOMORPH IS A MORPH THAT HAS A UNIQUE SET OF GRAMMATICAL
    OR LEXICAL FEATURES. ALL ALLOMORPHS WITH THE SAME SET OF
    FEATURES FORMS A MORPHEME. A MORPHEME, THEN, IS A SET OF
    ALLOMORPHS THAT HAVE THE SAME SET OF FEATURES.

    A morph is a phonological
    string (of phonemes) that cannot
    be broken down into smaller
    constituents that have a
    lexicogrammatical function.
    WHAT IS AN ALLOMORPH?

     A VARIANT FORM OF A MORPHEME THAT CAN REFER TO AFFIXES, WORD ENDINGS,


    OR ADJACENT WORD CHOICES, AND CAN CHANGE THE SOUND OF THE WORD
    ALTHOUGH THE CHANGES DO NOT CHANGE THE MEANING OF THE WORD. IT CAN
    INCLUDE CREATING A PLURAL, TENSES, CHOICE OF ARTICLE, AND MORE.
    The allomorphs of a morpheme are derived from phonological rules and any morphonemic rules
    that may apply to that morpheme.
    EXAMPLE OF ALLOMORPHS:
    1. The plural morphemes in English usually written as –s, has at least three allomorphons.
    s as in judges
    z as in dogs
     IZ as in boxes
    2. The past form morpheme –ed usually has also three allomorphons:
    d as in hunted
    t as in fished
     id as in buzzed

    3. The negative morpheme changes “n” the prefix (in) to the consonant of the word it prefixes.
     il as in illegal
     im as in impatient
     ir as in irregular
     in as in inconsiderate
    TYPES OF ALLOMORPHS

    1. ADDITIVE ALLOMORPHS
