| Summary: | The present study provides a synchronic morphophonological analysis of the passive verbal stems in Syriac. As is well known, Syriac passive stems are directly derived from their corresponding active stems by addition of the preformative 'et- and ablaut (vowel mutation). Oddly enough, ablaut always involves the final-stem vowel but never the first one, e.g. pa "el > 'etpa "al. We aim to show that the concept of Prosodic Circumscription developed by John McCarthy and his colleagues explains not only the asymmetry between the two vowels but also how the various internal modes of formation (gemination, infixation, ablaut) are distributed within the syllabic structure of the patterns, both active and passive. |
