<span class="ContentPasted0" style="" lang="EN-US">Affixes are a part of grammar that has intrigued scholars since the beginning of grammatical descriptions. Studies of affixes range from morphological and morphophonological considerations to syntactic and
semantic examinations.</span></p>

<span class="ContentPasted0" style="" lang="EN-US">The multitude of research on affixes has increased our understanding of their nature; for example, the concepts of grammaticalization and degrammaticalization have brought into light several pathways of the
historical development of affixes, to name just one major field of study around affixes in the recent decades. On the other hand, there are still questions to be answered in their study. How, for example, should we understand the concept of zero affixes? How
should we define the position of bound lexical morphemes (or bound roots) as opposed to affixes? What are the constraints of affix ordering/reordering or are there such constraints? Can affixes be borrowed directly (i.e. as such) or only indirectly (i.e. as
parts of lexemes)? In what ways can the semantics of affixes change? <br>
