More about the book
Exploring the intersection of Jackendoff's Parallel Architecture and European structuralism, this book argues for the necessity of distinguishing word formation as a separate component. It highlights the distinct functions of word formation rules compared to the lexicon and grammar. By examining the traditional debates surrounding word formation, inflection, and syntax, it establishes a guiding principle based on the naming function to clarify which rules belong to the word formation component, offering a fresh perspective on linguistic structure.
