New page

In morphology, '''reduplication''' is an operation which copies some part (or all) of the [[base]] and attaches the copied element (the reduplicant) to the base. The copied eelement that is attached to the base is called [[reduplicant]]. Reduplication is a kind of [[non-linear morphology]].

===Example===
Ponapean ''duhp'' 'dive', ''du-duhp'' 'be diving' (reduplication of a CV syllable, Rehg 1981:78).

===Subtypes===
*[[partial reduplication]]
*[[full reduplication]]
*[[prereduplication]]
*[[postreduplication]]

===Origin===
The use of this term in its modern sense goes back at least to the 18th century.

===References===

	Reduplication is a [[word formation]] process by which some part of a base (= a [[segment]], [[syllable]], [[morpheme]]) is repeated, either to the left, or to the right, or, occasionally, in the middle.
