  • Morphological Complexity

    de Matthew Baerman, Dunstan Brown, Greville G. Corbett ...
    Series Libro 153 - Cambridge Studies in Linguistics
    Inflectional morphology plays a paradoxical role in language. On the one hand it tells us useful things, for example that a noun is plural or a verb is in the past tense. On the other hand many languages get along perfectly well without it, so the baroquely ornamented forms we sometimes find come across as a gratuitous over-elaboration. This is especially apparent where the morphological ... Leer más

    The question of how to determine the meaning of compounds was prominent in early generative morphology, but lost importance after the late 1970s.

In this book, three frameworks for studying the semantics of compounding are presented by their ... Leer más

  • Clitics

    An Introduction

    de Andrew Spencer, Ana R. Luis ...
    Series series Cambridge Textbooks in Linguistics
    In most languages we find 'little words' which resemble a full word, but which cannot stand on their own. Instead they have to 'lean on' a neighbouring word, like the 'd, 've and unstressed 'em of Kim'd've helped'em ('Kim would have helped them'). These are clitics, and they are found in most of the world's languages. In English the clitic forms appear in the same place in the sentence that the ... Leer más

    A Comparative Study of Particles and Prefixes

    de Bettelou Los, Corrien Blom, Geert Booij, Marion Elenbaas, Ans van Kemenade ...
    Series Libro 134 - Cambridge Studies in Linguistics
    Particle verbs (combinations of two words but lexical units) are a notorious problem in linguistics. Is a particle verb like look up one word or two? It has its own entry in dictionaries, as if it is one word, but look and up can be split up in a sentence: we can say He looked the information up and He looked up the information. But why can't we say He looked up it? In English look and up can only ... Leer más
