I seriously doubt that 'morphonology' is an acceptable alternative to 'morphophonology' 132.229.191.111 08:42, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] English examples
Aren't a/an, the/"thee" and to/"too" also examples? A book, an apple. The book, "thee" apple. To ("t'") go, to ("too") ask. --Kjoonlee 07:36, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
- All illustrate the point. However, orthographically a/an is simply phonemic (or at least as close to phonemic as you can get with English), since the "underlying" form is not written, while the, etc. are orthographically morphophonemic. kwami (talk) 08:29, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
