Morphology, Phonology, and the Scottish Vowel-Length Rule.
Anderson, John
Journal of Linguistics, v29 n2 p419-30 Sep 1993
In a response to Philip Carr's discussion of the status of character of the Scottish Vowel-Length Rule (SVLR), this paper presents a proposal concerning the status of stem and base variation conditioned purely by morphological categories. It suggests that SVLR is precyclic only and non-structure changing. (Contains 19 references.) (LB)
