Rendaku undoubtedly constitutes the most extensively studied morphophonological process in Japanese linguistics. It is no exaggeration to say that it has been, and is still being scrutinized with respect to all its internal aspects: phonetic, phonological, morpho logical, lexical, syntactic, diachronic, acquisitional, and so forth, and research on rendaku has also contributed to theoretical and formal linguistics. In this context, it is somewhat surprising to observe that the cross-linguistic and typological dimensions of rendaku have remained largely understudied. Yet, a number of languages exhibit morphophonological linking processes which closely resemble rendaku in several respects. In this talk, I want to investigate and document the grammar of "rendaku-like phenomena" from a cross- linguistic and typological point of view, with a special-- but not exclusive--focus on Korean and Basque. The purpose is to assert the existence and the typological relevance of a specific categoryof compound markers, the "rendaku-like markers", in the languages of the world, and to provide a definition and characterization of them. My claim is that this type of compound marker exhibits a set of specific, interrelated properties, which will be presented anddiscussed in the paper, and that they should thus be recognized in their own right alongside other types of compound markers such as the Germanic linking elements, and other kinds of linking devices.< Leer menos
