3. Prosodic Morphology is a study of
how the morphological and
phonological factors of linguistic
form relate with one to another and
relate with grammatical system. A
key area of research is how
prosodic structure influences
templatic and circumscriptional
morphology, such as reduplication
and infixation. (McCarthy and
Prince, 1986)

6. Mapping Principle
The theory of autosegmental prosody was initially used to describe tone.
Tone can be shown as to be an independent prosody and not an integral
part of vowel and consonant segments.
Tones are represented on the tonal tier, and vowel also consonant on
the segmental tier. Processes affecting elements on one tier may in
some cases have no impact on elements on a different tier.
When vowels are deleted, the tone associated with one tier are not
necessarily lost.

7. The Skeletal Tier
Phonologycal phenomena as tones may
be linked in different ways to tone-
bearing units, segments may be linked
in a variety of ways to the skeletal tier.
Luganda has both long vowels and
geminate consonants. Geminate
consonants are longer and have a more
forceful articulation than short
consonant.
Skeletal tier: c v c v c v
Segmental tier: m u k a z i

8. The other way to forming words
including infixing (inserting a word-
building element within the root) and
reduplication (the full or partial
repetition of the base).
Infixes are relatively rare in English, but
you can find them in the plural forms of
some words. For example, cupful and
passerby can be pluralized as cupsful
and passersby, using "s" as an infix.
Reduplications are used in a variety of
ways. Some simply imitate
sounds: ding-dong, bow-wow. Some
suggest alternative movements: flip-
flop, ping-pong. Some are
disparaging: dilly-dally, wishy-washy.
And some intensify meaning: teeny-
weeny, tip-top.
