- Abstract
In this paper, we discuss the prosodic and morphologic status of Brazilian Portuguese prefixed words in a constraint-based approach. We defend that prefixes can be attached to their prosodic bases by composition, adjunction or incorporation. Considering evidences from processes like resyllabification, intervocalic voicing, epenthesis, and nasal assimilation, we propose that the alignment between prosody and morphology and some syllable structure constraints are higher ranked than constraints referring to prosodic word dominance, such as exhaustiveness and nonrecursiveness.
