This document discusses allomorphs and morphophonology. It defines allomorphs as phonologically or lexically conditioned variants of morphemes. Phonologically conditioned allomorphs include the indefinite article "a/an" and plural morphemes "/s/ or /z/". Lexically conditioned allomorphs include irregular plural nouns and past tense verbs. Morphophonology is the study of these different phonetic forms of allomorphs.
