Abstract |
The present paper examines the morphology of loans beyond integration in Moroccan Arabic (MA). It provides an insight into lexical organization as well as the status of the consonantal root in MA. It thus contributes to the C-root vs. stem/word characterization of the base of derivation in Hamitic-Semitic. This work deals particularly with loan inflectional and derivational processes including backformation, French loan infinitives and loan plural formation in MA. While backformation provides evidence for the C-root as a base of derivation, French loan infinitives support a stem-based approach; loan pluralization, on its part, calls for both approaches, the sound plural being stem-based and the broken plural root-based. Additionally, loan plurals reveal the organization of MA lexicon into three distinct strata: the non-concatenative, the concatenative and the extragrammatical. The first stratum corresponds to the C-root while the second and third support a stem-based approach. We conclude, thus, that the MA lexicon is organized around both a C- root as well as a stem. |
