Guébie: vowels, ATR, and particle verbs #

Lexical substrate for Guébie (Kru; Côte d'Ivoire): the ten-vowel ±ATR inventory ([San22] §3.2, [SCD26] (1)) and the particle-verb lexicon ([SCD26] (10)–(12)). Particle verbs are phrasal idioms — a prefixing particle plus a verb, with noncompositional meaning; the particle harmonizes with the verb root in ATR when both are spelled out in the same phase, and carries its lexical value otherwise.

Main definitions #

inductive Guebie.Vowel :

The ten Guébie vowels ([San22] §3.2). Constructor names ASCII-ize the IPA (capital = lax −ATR counterpart): schwa = ə, I = ɪ, E = ɛ, O = ɔ, U = ʊ.

            The lexical ATR value: the value of the morpheme's (agreeing) vowels. The rare vowelless morphemes are treated as [−ATR]; they neither trigger nor block (kɔ-ɲ 'give' surfaces −ATR, (10)).

              Morpheme-internal vowels agree in ATR ([SCD26] §2.1).
