GEMA Online® Journal of Language Studies 143 Volume 15(1), February 2015 Truncation of Some Akan Personal Names Kwasi Adomako [email protected] University of Education, Winneba, Ghana ABSTRACT This paper examines some morphophonological processes in Akan personal names with focus on the former process. The morphological processes of truncation of some indigenous personal names identified among the Akan (Asante) ethnic group of Ghana are discussed. The paper critically looks at some of these postlexical morpheme boundary processes in some Akan personal names realized in the truncated form when two personal names interact. In naming a child in a typical Akan, specifically in Asante‟s custom, a family name is given to the child in addition to his/her „God-given‟ name or day-name. We observe truncation and some phonological processes such as vowel harmony, compensatory lengthening, etc. at the morpheme boundaries in casual speech context. These morphophonological processes would be analyzed within the Optimality Theory framework where it would be claimed that there is templatic constraint that demands that the base surname minimally surfaces as disyllable irrespective of the syllable size of the base surname.

Director, Program Innovation Simultaneously, the continent is transforming due to the effects of rapid urbanization. Africa is the fastest urbanizing continent with urban growth rate of 3.5 percent per year, with that rate expected to hold until 2050.2 Ghana’s rate of urbanization is currently measured at 3.4 percent3 and the country has reached the milestone of 51 percent of its 24 million people living in cities. Urbanization and economic growth spur opportunity but also present challenges such as growth of slums to accommodate the influx of people seeking better jobs and lives in the cities. In turn this can lead to poor quality services and inequalities exacerbated by crime and conflict. Over the last few decades we have also seen an increase in urban disasters. Poor, cramped living conditions, such as those we saw in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, in 2010, can lead to even deadlier and more destructive disasters.4 The world is changing how it views Africa, from seeing the continent through the lens of vulnerability to seeing it through the lens of opportunity.
