Number
ISBN: 9780521649704 / Angielski / Miękka / 380 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Number is the most underestimated of the grammatical categories. It is deceptively simple yet distinctions in number (as in cat versus cats ) vary considerably from language to language. Some languages, for instance, make more distinctions than English, having three, four or even five different values. This book draws on examples from many languages to analyze the possibilities and reveals that the world's linguistic resources are richer than even many linguists realize. It is intended for linguistic students and teachers and is an ideal entry to linguistic typology.

The Syntax-Morphology Interface: A Study of Syncretism
ISBN: 9780521102759 / Angielski / Miękka / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Syncretism--where a single form serves two or more morphosyntactic functions--is a persistent problem at the syntax-morphology interface. It results from a 'mismatch', whereby the syntax of a language makes a particular distinction, but the morphology does not. This pioneering book provides the first full-length study of inflectional syncretism, presenting a typology of its occurrence across a wide range of languages. It will be welcomed by linguists interested in the relation between words and the larger units of which they are a part.

The Morphology of English Dialects: Verb-Formation in Non-Standard English
ISBN: 9780521884976 / Angielski / Twarda / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Where do dialects differ from Standard English, and why are they so remarkably resilient? This new study argues that commonly used verbs that deviate from Standard English for the most part have a long pedigree. Analysing the language use of over 120 dialect speakers, Lieselotte Anderwald demonstrates that not only are speakers justified historically in using these verbs, systematically these non-standard forms actually make more sense. By constituting a simpler system, they are generally more economical than their Standard English counterparts. Drawing on data collected from the Freiburg...

Evolution of Morphology
ISBN: 9780199202683 / Angielski / Miękka / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Examining the evolution of the grammatical structure of words in the contexts of human evolution and the origins of language, this text challenges the conventional views of the relationship between syntax and morphology, the adaptationist view of language evolution, and the notion that language reflects 'laws of form'.

The Evolution of Morphology
ISBN: 9780199299782 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book considers the evolution of the grammatical structure of words in the more general contexts of human evolution and the origins of language. The consensus in many fields is that language is well designed for its purpose, and became so either through natural selection or by virtue of non-biological constraints on how language must be structured. Andrew Carstairs-McCarthy argues that in certain crucial respects language is not optimally designed. This can be seen, he suggests, in the existence of not one but two kinds of grammatical organization - syntax and morphology - and in the...

Cognitive Perspectives on Word Formation
ISBN: 9783110223590 / Angielski / Twarda / 439 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. While cognitive linguistics has become established as a comprehensive research paradigm over the last three decades, it has so far hardly contributed to investigations into processes of lexical creation as traditionally captured in research on word formation. In light of this, the volume at hand is the first one to take a step ahead towards illuminating diverse aspects of word formation from cognitive perspectives. The book combines contributions to the 2nd International Cognitive Linguistics Conference of the German Cognitive Linguistics Association with a selection of invited...

Regimes of Derivation in Syntax and Morphology
ISBN: 9780415887236 / Angielski / Twarda / 190 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Regimes of Derivation in Syntax and Morphology presents a theory of the architecture of the human linguistic system that differs from all current theories on four key points. First, the theory rests on a modular separation of word syntax from phrasal syntax, where word syntax corresponds roughly to what has been called derivational morphology. Second, morphosyntax (corresponding to what is traditionally called "inflectional morphology") is the immediate spellout of the syntactic merge operation, and so there is no separate morphosyntactic component. There is no LF (logical form) derived; that...

Defective Paradigms: Missing Forms and What They Tell Us
ISBN: 9780197264607 / Angielski / Twarda / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. An important design feature of language is the use of productive patterns in inflection. In English, we have pairs such as 'enjoy' 'enjoyed', 'agree' 'agreed', and many others. On the basis of this productive pattern, if we meet a new verb 'transduce' we know that there will be the form 'transduced'. Even if the pattern is not fully regular, there will be a form available, as in 'understand' 'understood'. Surprisingly, this principle is sometimes violated, a phenomenon known as defectiveness, which means there is a gap in a word's set of forms: for example, given the verb 'forego', many if...

Discovering Ancient Biblical Hebrew Word Formation: A Workbook for the Discovery of the Original Nature of Derivational Morphology of Ancient Biblical
ISBN: 9781453734681 / Angielski / Miękka / 142 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This work focuses on a presentation of various sets of related Biblical Hebrew word derivations, presented as puzzles, and including the answers. The puzzles allow the reader to share in the discovery process. This presentation is also an attempt to prove the original nature of derivational morphology (word formation). The author suggests he finds evidence that the morphology is like that of an ideal language. Knowledge of linguistics and knowledge of Biblical Hebrew is not a prerequisite. An analysis of Biblical Hebrew-Greek transliterations are also included in this volume. A glossary of...

Morphosyntactic Alterations in English: Functional and Cognitive Perspectives
ISBN: 9781845537449 / Angielski / Twarda / 388 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This volume brings together fourteen papers which explore the discourse-pragmatic, semantic, morphological and syntactic factors involved in English morphosyntactic alternations. The contributors to this volume deal with different types of diathesis alternations -broadly defined by Levin (English Verb Classes and Alternations. A Preliminary Investigation, 1993) as alternations in the expressions of arguments, sometimes accompanied by changes of meaning -i.e. transitivity alternations (such as the causative/inchoative alternation and the conative alternation), alternations involving arguments...

Dennoch sollte dargestellt werden, da sich Sprache standig verandert, aber das lat sich auch an gegenwartssprachlichem Material demonstrieren. Die Theoriedebatten der 70er und 80er Jahre sind heute nicht mehr aktuell, das Interesse an der Theorie der Wortbildung ist uberwiegend der auf deskriptiv-funktionaler Basis arbeitenden Wortbildungspraxis gewichen.

Morphology, Paradigms, and Periphrases
ISBN: 9780199608324 / Angielski / Twarda / 331 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The three volumes of The Substance of Language collectively overhaul linguistic theory from phonology to semantics and syntax to pragmatics and offer a full account of how the form/function relationship works in language. Each explores the consequences for the investigation of language of a conviction that all aspects of linguistic structure are grounded in the non-linguistic mental faculties on which language imposes its own structure. The first and third look at how syntax and phonology are fed by a lexical component that includes morphology and which unites representations in the two...

Routledge Revivals presents a reissue of Noam Chomksy 's MA thesis, written in 1951, and first published in 1979. Morphophonemics of Modern Hebrew is a landmark study in linguistics and generative phonology, which provides not only an analysis of morphophonemics but of the entire grammar of Modern Hebrew from syntax to phonology. Professor Chomsky 's goal in this thesis is nothing less than a complete generative grammar of the Hebrew language. This work is of singular importance as it contains the genesis of the author 's work in the field of generative grammar which has had such a...
