Processing of English inflectional morphology.
The present paper explores the representation of inflectional morphology in the English lexicon. There has been a long-standing debate about how these inflectional relationships might be involved during on-line processing. Inflected forms may be derived from an uninflected base form by rule application; by contrast, both regular and irregular inflection may be treated in the same way, with morp...
متن کاملProcessing Inflectional and Derivational Morphology
Three lexical decision experiments were carried out to investigate the nature of morphological decomposition in the lexical system. The first of these experiments compares the priming effect of inflectionally and derivationally related forms on a simple inflected word. Italian derived words like mutevole (changeable) were as effective as non-derived inllected words like mutarono (they changed) ...
متن کاملRunning Head: DISTRIBUTED MODEL OF INFLECTIONAL MORPHOLOGY Frequency Effects in the Processing of Inflectional Morphology: a Distributed Connectionist Account
One source of evidence concerning the representation and processing of inflected words comes from frequency effects. Experiments in Dutch reported by Baayen, Dijkstra and Schreuder (1997) are interpreted as evidence for a dual-route race model in which inflected words are both stored as whole forms and decomposed into stems and affixes. In this paper we report two sets of neural network simulat...
متن کاملProcessing Russian inflectional morphology: a PET study of verb generation
For many years, acquisition of verbal morphology has been an issue of much debate within linguistic theory, research on first and second language acquisition, mental grammar representation, and cognitive processing. The proponents of the Dual Mechanism account claim that regularly inflected forms are computed by a ruleprocessing system, while morphologically irregular forms are processed in ass...
متن کاملNeurocognitive mechanisms for processing inflectional and derivational complexity in English
In the current paper we discuss the mechanisms that underlie the processing of inflectional and derivational complexity in English. We address this issue from a neurocognitive perspective and present evidence from a new fMRI study that the two types of morphological complexity engage the language processing network in different ways. The processing of inflectional complexity selectively activat...
