Morphology and Mind (Rle Linguistics C: Applied Linguistics)

More about the book

Focusing on the explanation of linguistic form, the book explores cross-linguistic patterns in morphological systems, particularly the prevalence of suffixes over prefixes and the relationship between affix position and syntactic head position. It advocates for increased collaboration among linguistic subdisciplines and emphasizes the importance of cross-disciplinary research. The author's extensive background in theoretical morphology and language processing enables a nuanced understanding of the interplay between linguistic principles and cognitive mechanisms.
