Abstract:

Chapters in this volume describe morphology using four different frameworks
that have an architectural property in common: they all use defaults as a way
of discovering and presenting systematicity in the least systematic component
of grammar. These frameworks - Construction Morphology, Network Morphology,
Paradigm-function Morphology, and Word Grammar - display key differences in
how they constrain the use and scope of defaults, and in the morphological
phenomena that they address.
 
An introductory chapter presents an overview of defaults in linguistics and
specifically in morphology. In subsequent chapters, key proponents of the four
frameworks seek to answer questions about the role of defaults in the lexicon,
including: Does a defaults-based account of language have implications for the
architecture of the grammar, particularly the proposal that morphology is an
autonomous component? How does a default differ from the canonical or
prototypical in morphology? Do defaults have a psychological basis? And how do
defaults help us understand language as a sign-based system that is flawed,
where the one to one association of form and meaning breaks down in the
morphology?
