520 |a A systematic analysis of the distribution of Nancowry phonological and morphological elements at word level is presented. Included is a systematically transcribed vocabulary which is ordered according to the word roots. In the section devoted to word phonology, included topics are syllabic structure, stress placement, vowel length and nasality, vocalics, prosody, phonetic variation, vowel assimilation, consonants (stops, nasals, fricatives, and liquids), semiconsonants, consonantal clusters, and consonantal contrasts. The chapter on word morphology and formation presents a discussion of monosyllabic and disyllabic roots, words and particles, derivation and inflection, root reduplication, and formation of the causative, agentive, instrumental, possessive, and objective cases. In each of these chapters, extensive lists of examples accompany the explanatory text. The analytical Nancowry word dictionary includes an index of roots, a list of homophonous roots, a list of particles, a list of root-prefixes, and over 750 words with corresponding English definitions.
