| Description | In this paper, I analyse the lexical representations of case markers in Czech and their merger with those nominal stems which end in consonants. My aim is to provide independent morphological evidence for empty Nuclei and lexically floating vowels, the phonological objects introduced in the Standard Government Phonology and developed in the CVCV framework (Lowenstamm 1996, Scheer 2004). |
