In linguistics, an Elision or deletion is the omission of one or more sounds (such as a vowel, a consonant, or a whole syllable) in a word or phrase. The word elision is frequently used in linguistic description of living languages, and deletion is often used in historical linguistics for a historical sound change. * While often described as occurring in "slurred" speech, elisions are a normal speech phenomenon and come naturally to native speakers of the language in which they occur. Contractions such as can not → can't involve elision, and "dropping" of word-internal unstressed vowels (known specifically as syncope) is frequent: Mississippi → Missippi, history → histry, mathematics → mathmatics. * In French, elisions are mandatory in certain contexts, as in C'est la vie (elided from *Ce est la vie). An example of historical elision in French that began at the phrasal level and became lexicalized is preposition de > d' in aujourd'hui 'today', now felt by native speakers to be one word, but deriving from au jour de hui, similar to Spanish al día de hoy, Italian al giorno d'oggi, literally 'at the day of today' and meaning 'nowadays,' although hui is no longer recognized as meaningful in French. * Various elisions are common in many varieties of Spanish, one of the most frequent being loss of /d/ in past participles and other forms ending in /do/: al otro lado → al otro lao 'on the other side.' The word para 'for, in order to' is frequently reduced to pa, and often written with an apostrophe to signal the deletion, as in the song title Pa' trabajar 'in order to work' by Juan Carlos Baglietto. * Elisions likely occurred regularly in Latin, but were not written, except in inscriptions and comedy. Elision of a vowel before a word starting in a vowel is frequent in poetry, where the metre sometimes requires it. For example, the opening line of Catullus 3 is Lugete, O Veneres Cupidinesque, but would be read as Lugeto Veneres Cupidinesque. * Some morphemes take the form of elision: see disfix. * The opposite of elision is epenthesis, whereby sounds are inserted into a word, as in American English ath[ə]lete, real[ə]tor. The latter illustrates that this and other phenomena do not necessarily occur to ease pronunciation; even speakers who produce real[ə]tor regularly show no difficulty in pronouncing the /lt/ cluster of Walter, helter skelter, filter, etc. * The omission of a word from a phrase or sentence is not elision but ellipsis, or elliptical construction. |
