"Number in the Badini Dialect "A phonological and Morphological study

Abstract

This research is entitled (Number in the Badini Dialect “A Phonological and Morphological study ”). This research aims to identify the phonetic phenomena that affect the form of some numbers, the role of numbers in the formation of new words, and the morphological structure of numbers that are different in terms of structure. This resarch was conducted accordin to the descriptive analytical method. We have concluded that phonetic phenomena (partial assimilation, mutation, elision, insertion) play a role in the formation of some number forms, and that number plays a very active role in the formation of new words. The research consists of two parts. Part one covers the following topics (concepts, terminology and numerical recognition, typs of numbers in terms of existence, types of numbers in terms of meaning, concepts, definitions, characteristics and types of morphemes). The second part is divided into two sections. In the first section, the phonetic phenomena that occur in the form of numbers are discussed. The second section covers the following topics (number variations in terms of structure, numbers and parts of speech, numbers and the formation of new consonants, numbers and the phenomenon of morphophonemes, numbers and empty morph, numbers and repetition).

Key words: number, phonological phenomena, morphophonemes, empty morph, repetition.
