Abstract

In this paper I examine the role sound alone can play as the basis for analogical connections among forms, as opposed to more conventionally discussed factors such as paradigmatic structure, grammatical category, or meaning. Examples are presented here, mainly from English, that show sound effects in analogy at various levels of linguistic analysis, including phonetics, morphology, syntax, semantics, and the lexicon.
