Linguistic Sub-field: Morphology

This is a session of the following conference: 11th International
Morphology Meeting

Meeting Description:

The Workshop will investigate the notion "possible word" from a
morphological perspective. We are interested in the extremes, in how
far words can differ from the canonical type in given languages. In
inflection, relevant phenomena are suppletion, syncretism,
defectiveness and deponency, each of which can produce unusual
words. Interactions between these phenomena can give rise to
especially interesting effects. In derivational morphology we are
similarly interested in how far the limits can be stretched, in
compounding (through recursion) and notably in incorporation.
