RESUMO

This thesis discusses the interface between phonology and morphology in Brazilian portuguese (BP) and develops the model of Lexical Phonology in this language. It assumes the theory of Prosodic Lexical Phonology (Inkelas, 1989, 1993), in which there is a hierarchy of prosodic constituents in the lexicon. According to this tnodel, these prosodic constituents are motivated by mismatches between the phonological structure and the morphological structure. These mismatches prevent the phonological rules from applying directly after every morphological operation. The phonological rules apply to prosodic domains, which are assigned by morphology - the morphological component has indirect access to the phonological component. The ).exicon of BP consists of two ordered levels: the Ci (derivational) level and the _ (inflectional) level, which function as the domains of application of the phonological and morphological rules. I show that: i) there are two types of compounding in BP: lexical compounding and postlexical compounding; ii) the lexical phonological rules are subject to principles of Lexical Phonology, such as Structure preservation and the Strict Cycle Condition, while the postlexical rules are not; iii) with relation to primary stress, there are two distinct rules: one for non-verb forms, which applies at the Ci level; the other for verb forms which applies at the _ level; iv} the secondary stress applies at the w level.
