Syntactic Expression as Morphological Exponence
نویسنده
چکیده
“... an inflected word’s association with its morphosyntactic feature specifications is logically prior to the spelling out of its inflectional markings, since it is this very association that determines the sequence of operations by which those markings are introduced; the realizational approach thus entails a rejection of the assumption that a word’s morphosyntactic feature content is built cumulatively from that of its inflectional `morpheme’ by a percolation mechanism.” Stump 1993:449

Extended exponence by enrichment: Argument encoding in German, Archi, and Timucua
This paper is concerned with a principled approach to cases of extended (or multiple) exponence, as postulated in Matthews (1972, 82) for Greek verb inflection (perfect forms in particular), and in Matthews (1974, 149) for English verb inflection (among other phenomena). Extended exponence characterizes those cases of morphological realization where a single morpho-syntactic property seems to b...
متن کاملCore Principles of Morphological Exponence
It is one of the hallmarks of natural language that abstract morphosyntactic and semantic information is realized in an intricate way by phonological structure. This mapping of representations of radically different types closely related to Martinet’s (1960) notion of ‘double articulation’ is traditionally called ‘exponence’ (Matthews, 1991). This network brings together researchers from theore...
متن کاملA Radically Non-Morphemic Approach to Bidirectional Syncretisms
This paper addresses the question of how certain kinds of overlapping syncretisms in inflectional paradigms can be accounted for that Baerman et al. (2005) refer to as convergent/divergent bidirectional syncretisms (based on earlier work by Stump (2001)). Bidirectional syncretism strongly resists accounts in terms of standard rules of exponence (or similar devices) that correlate inflection mar...
