Word-level processes such as polysyllabic shortening and word-initial lengthening are examined at the lexical-word level in the research described here. The relationship between syntactic words - that is, lexical and functional words - and possible prosodic words is not directly tested. Important theoretical issues in this mapping are the prosodic status of function words and the prosodic structure of lexical compounds, as discussed by, for example, Nespor & Vogel (1986) and Selkirk (1996) - this research is reviewed in dissertation Section 2.3.
