Category : Foreign Language Study
Languages : en
Pages : 540

Rebecca Posner explores the history of the French language in all its manifestations.

Morphology 2000
Author: Sabrina BendjaballahPublisher: John Benjamins Publishing
ISBN: 9781588110800
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
This volume focuses on two main topics: comparative morphology (i.e. cross-linguistic analysis, including typology, dialectology and diachrony) and psycholinguistics (i.e. on-line processing, off-line experiments, child language). Since the psycholinguistic papers of this volume consistently refer to issues of grammatical theory and many of the contributions on morphological theory consider psycholinguistic questions, the topics are interconnected.Both inflectional and derivational morphology are dealt with. The volume spans a broad set of languages of the world, such as African, Amerindian, Arabic and Chukotko-Kamchatkan, in addition to the Indo-European languages.This volume differs from the other collective volumes on morphology both by the breadth of topics and by great integration of theoretical and methodological perspectives.
