For example in agglutinative languages where mutliple affixes are used on the root to produce words. Are affixes that convey a certain type of grammatical information like tense, aspect, mood, case and etc, more likely to occur closer to the root word

Like for example a language has multiple suffixes that for maybe no. 1 case, no. 2 tense-aspect, 3. mood. If you could attach all those at once is there a pattern for which one would go directly onto the root and the next onto the 1st suffix and so on?

Macam diper- = 1 imbuhan ataupun di- + per- = 2 imbuhan

Langauges like yoruba are analysed as having /k͡p/ and /ɡ͡b/ but why arent they just regarded as consonant clusters when other languages have clusters which phonetically might be analysed as also being coarticulated like /ks/ being [k͡s] or [kˢ]?

Ive heard that english acts as mostly a lexifier with the syntax and morphology coming from tagalog and all its voice, tense, aspect makers/affixes

From my understanding tonal languages are ones in which the vowel in each syllable within a word is independantly capable of having an inherit tone (pitch + contour?) and thus such tones are contrastive and callled phoneme in their own right

Pitch accent languages however are languages that have specific words in which certain syllables within these words have a different pitch from the rest of the other syllables (wether it be higher or lower?). This can then be contrasted with other words forming minimal pairs, one in which the pitch is the same throughout the word and one in which there is pitch contrasts in the syllables. Can it then be said that pitch is phonemic in these languages?

What are some of the most recent/credited papers on this matter?

Maybe in old malay or even proto-malayic, not sure about classical. But in modern colloqial malay its really only compulsory to convert stuff into verbs and only occasionaly used for active voice marking

Trying to find the list of sound changes going from one to the other

I know it'll very based on the exact stage of PM and or the reconstruction but generally what were some important ones

I couldnt really understand specifics of what was laid out in tatabahasa dewan.

You get pesakit and penyakit, which make me think if both are possible on a verb that pəN refers to people/objects that act out the noun, hence penyakit = sickness and that pə means somehting that experience the effect of the noun so pesakit = sick person

but idk can someone explain in detail exactly what their functions are

Do they add new formants we can use to tell the degree of nasalisation? are the normal formants we use to identify the vowel effected and shifted aswell?
