  1. Syncretism (linguistics)

    In linguistics , syncretism is the identity of form of distinct morphology linguistics morphological forms of a word. pn date October 2011 qn date October 2011 This phenomenon is typical of fusional languages . For example, in English language English , the Nominative case nominative and Accusative case accusative forms of you and it are the same, whereas he him , she her , etc., have different forms depending on grammatical case . In Latin , the nominative and Vocative case vocative of Latin declension Third declension .28i.29 third declension nouns have the same form e.g. r x king is both nominative and vocative singular . Similarly, in German language German , the infinitive , Grammatical person first person plural present, and Grammatical person third person plural present of almost all verbs are identical in form e.g. nehmen to take , wir nehmen we take , sie nehmen they take . Syncretism can arise through either phonology phonological or morphological change. In the case of phonological change, forms that were originally distinct come to be pronounced identically, so that their distinctness is lost. Thus in the German case, the infinitive nehmen comes from Old High German neman , the first person plural nehmen comes from nem m , and the third person plural nehmen comes from nemant . In the case of morphological change, one form simply stops being used and is replaced by the other this is the case with the Latin example, where the nominative simply displaced the vocative in the third declension.
