However, it is still a matter of debate whether this prosodic hierarchy is composed of a small number of universal categories, or whether these prosodic categories are language-particular and emergent. In this article, we concentrate on one of these categories, the foot, and we investigate its role in European Portuguese (EP). Whereas research on EP has shown that other prosodic domains commonly found crosslinguistically are active in the language, it seems that EP may lack this prosodic constituent. Therefore, the goal of this article is to systematically investigate the role of the foot in a number of areas within EP grammar. In our study, we defend some new approaches to several long-standing issues in EP phonology and we conclude that many facts of the language can be, in fact, better understood resorting to the foot domain. Namely, the distribution of stress in the most frequent morphological classes (thematic non-verbs and present tense verbs), -inh-\/-zinh- diminutive formation, the domain for regular vowel reduction, obligatory glide formation, the stress window, and poetic rhyme seem to benefit from a metrically-governed account. By contrast, other facts, such as vowel lowering, word clipping, minimal words, secondary stress, and schwa deletion are shown not to be conditioned by the foot in EP. Importantly, the evidence we found for metrical structure only cues the prominent foot of the word, suggesting that pretonic material may not be footed. All in all, in addition to shedding light on facts previously poorly understood, and exposing some noteworthy specificities of EP in the realm of Romance languages and other varieties of Portuguese, we draw implications for the universal characterization of the prosodic hierarchy and its acquisition.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/languages9110332","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,24]],"date-time":"2024-10-24T05:47:33Z","timestamp":1729748853000},"page":"332","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Is the Foot a Prosodic Domain in European Portuguese?"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"9","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7640-4798","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Marina","family":"Vig\u00e1rio","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Center of Linguistics, School of Arts and Humanities, University of Lisbon, 1600-214 Lisbon, Portugal"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3616-128X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Violeta","family":"Mart\u00ednez-Paricio","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Language Theory and Communication Sciences, Facultad de Filolog\u00eda, Comunicaci\u00f3n y Traducci\u00f3n, Universitat de Val\u00e8ncia, Blasco Ib\u00e1\u00f1ez 10, 46010 Valencia, Spain"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,10,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"1","article-title":"An Exploration of Truncation in Italian","volume":"vol. 3","author":"Staroverov","year":"2010","journal-title":"Rutgers Working Papers in Linguistics"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Trommer, Jochen (2012).
