Stump 2006: heteroclisis and paradigm linkage #

[stump-2006]

Heteroclisis — a lexeme whose paradigm draws on two or more inflection classes — regulated by rules of paradigm linkage. The universal default rule (5) links each content cell ⟨L, σ⟩ to ⟨root L, σ⟩; a heteroclite lexeme carries an override (the shape of the Czech rule (14)) routing part of its paradigm to a coradical of a different class.

Czech PRAMEN 'spring' (Table 1, after Heim 1982): singular cells inflect soft-masculine (like POKOJ 'room'), plural cells hard-masculine (like MOST 'bridge'). The two stems are phonologically identical — [stump-2006] holds that the paradigm still "exhibits a kind of stem alternation", the stems differing in class alone; footnote 5 defends class-distinct, form-identical stem alternants against the No Blur Principle. Formally: the linkage is invariant along the form projection yet heteroclite along the class projection (heteroclisis_without_form_suppletion), and heteroclisis entails stem non-invariance (Linkage.IsHeteroclite.isSuppletive).

Sanskrit HR̥D(AYA) 'heart' (Table 4): direct-case cells are built on hr̥daya (neuter a-stem declension, like ĀSYA), oblique cells on hr̥d (neuter consonant-stem declension) — heteroclisis riding on genuine stem suppletion, occupying the grid cell PRAMEN leaves empty. Together the two lexemes witness that form-invariance and class-invariance are independent below stem invariance.

                                      The default-plus-override linkage reproduces every form of Table 1.

                                      The two declensions ordinarily contrast — no case/number cell has them merely notational variants across the whole ending inventory, and e.g. the genitive singular separates them outright. PRAMEN's split is therefore detectable ([stump-2006] on POKOJ vs MOST vs PRAMEN).

                                      PRAMEN is heteroclite: its correspondents draw on both declensions ([stump-2006] Table 1, rule (14)).

                                      Heteroclisis without form suppletion: the linkage is invariant along the form projection — every lexeme's stems are phonologically constant — yet heteroclite along the class projection. Form-invariance and class-invariance are independent ([stump-2006] fn. 5, against reading the No Blur Principle as excluding class-only stem alternants).

                                      The entailment instance: PRAMEN's class split makes the linkage suppletive in the broad sense — two stems — even though no form alternation is audible, [stump-2006]'s "a kind of stem alternation".

                                      Direct cases (nominative, vocative, accusative) are built on hr̥daya, oblique cases on hr̥d; the a-stem hr̥daya follows the neuter a-stem declension, the consonant-stem hr̥d the neuter consonant-stem declension. Cells are abstracted to the direct/oblique split the prose states.
