Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
My work on the interaction between accent and morphology in Japanese and Korean dialects was published in a journal article, and my work on vowel harmony in Korean was published in an edited volume. I also worked on morpho-phonological alternations in Sino-Japanese and Sino-Korean. I presented the Sino-Japanese part of this work at a research meeting. I also looked in more detail at lexical stratification in the accent systems of Japanese and Korean dialects. On the theoretical side, I worked on the integration of Autosegmental Phonology with Relational Morphology.

Current Status of Research Progress |
Current Status of Research Progress
2: Research has progressed on the whole more than it was originally planned.
Reason
I was able to solve a number of problems in the morpho-phonology of Sino-Japanese and Sino-Korean. Moreover, I found a way to integrate important elements of Autosegmental Phonology in Relational Morphology. On the other hand, I couldn't make enough time to present more of my work at conferences and research meetings.

Strategy for Future Research Activity |
Next year, I will continue my work on accent patterns across different lexical strata in Japanese and Korean dialects. On the theoretical side, I will continue my work on the integration of Autosegmental Phonology with Relational Morphology. Apart from this, I will present more of my findings at conferences and write and submit several articles.
|
Causes of Carryover |
I would like to present more of my work at conferences and research meetings. Furthermore, I would also like to visit fellow linguists to discuss and further develop my research. Finally, if possible I would like to collect some more data from Korean dialects.
