Evidence of (in)applicability of Morphological Doubling Theory in Acehnese reduplication

Abstract: Morphological Doubling Theory (MDT) states that reduplication is a process in morphology, instead of phonology, which calls the second element as a reduplicant to add meaning to the base. This research is to investigate to what extent MDT is applicable to analyze reduplications in Acehnese, an Austronesian language spoken in Indonesia. The research was based on nine literary works called hikayat written in early 20th century or earlier. The number of tokens extracted from the data source is 1076, or 370 tokens… Show more

“…Meanwhile, Durie (1985) discusses reduplication in a section of his work, focusing on patterns and semantic functions of Acehnese reduplications. More recent studies related to Acehnese reduplication have been conducted by Mustafa (2022a) and Mustafa (2022b), focusing on patterns of reduplications and analyzing them morphologically.…”
