About this book

Morphology is a comprehensive introduction to contemporary morphological theory and analysis in generative grammar. It contains numerous in-text exercises which involve the reader in doing morphology by analysing data from English and numerous other languages. The book is divided into three parts. Part 1 surveys traditional notions of word-structure which remain fundamental to morphological investigations. Part 2 explores the relationship between morphology and phonology in current generative grammar, while Part 3 highlights issues in the interaction between morphology and syntax.
