Abstract
Tak Jin-young. 2006. Typological Analysis of Two Types of Prenasalized Consonants (NC) in Bantu: Their Moraic Representations. Korean Journal of Linguistics, 31-3, 463-493. One of the most frequently-documented areas of Bantu (a group of African languages forming a subdivision of the Benue-Niger division of the Niger-Congo branch of the Niger-Kordofanian language family) is the moraic status of preconsonantal nasals. In previous studies, it has been argued that in Bantu prenasalized consonants, derived from a nasal and a consonant, are unitary and so trigger lengthening of the preceeding vowel (Clements 1986). However, certain other studies (Hubbard 1995a, 1995b; Odden 1996, 2000; Hyman and Ngunga 1997) have proposed the existence of two types of prenasalized consonants: one whose preconsonantal nasal bears a mora in the underlying representation triggering vowel epenthesis and another whose preconsonantal nasal does not bear a mora, and therefore does not trigger vowel lengthening. Instead of proposing two different types of preconsonantal nasals (i.e., moraic and non-moraic), this paper suggests that there is only one underlying moraic nasal of a prenasalized consonant. Furthermore, it is suggested that, within the framework of Correspondence Theory (McCarthy and Prince 1995, 1999), the different moraic realizations of the nasal in the sequence of the prenasalized consonants may result from the re-ranking of the universal and violable constraints.
