Chapter 2 Word Frequency in Lexical Diffusion and the Source of Morphophonological Change T wo ideas that have been around for almost a century need to be reexamined in the light of our current theories of linguistic change. These ideas involve the relationship between word frequency and morphophonological change. I will divide morphophonological change in the traditional way into sound change, which I view as being largely, perhaps entirely, phonetically motivated, and analogy, which I consider to be primarily conceptually motivated.

Chapter 3 reprints Bybee and Brewer (1980), which focuses on analogical changes in the preterite verbal paradigms of dialects of Castilian and Provençal. Though the changes work with different phonological material, indicating their independence from one another, the principles underlying the changes are the same. These changes point to the relative autonomy of certain forms, particularly the third singular and the first singular, which both resist change and serve as the basis of new analogical formations.
