Abstract:

Provides a critical introduction to the central ideas and perennial problems
of morphology, fully revised and updated in a new edition

What is Morphology? is a concise, student-friendly introduction to the
fundamentals of contemporary morphological theory and practice. Requiring only
a basic knowledge of linguistics, this popular textbook describes
morphological phenomena and their interactions with phonology, syntax, and
semantics while familiarizing students with the importance of linguistic
morphology as a subject of research. Each chapter contains engaging examples
and student-friendly explanations to support the development of the skills
necessary to analyze a wealth of classic morphological problems.

The third edition is fully updated to reflect the current state of the field,
featuring a new chapter on morphology’s intersections with typology and
computational linguistics. Expanded coverage of morphological productivity and
processing is supported by additional exercises, examples, and further reading
suggestions. Thoroughly revised chapters cover essential topics including
morphemes, the lexicon, phonology, inflection, syncretism, and derived
lexemes. This accessible textbook:

Introduces fundamental phenomena with a descriptive theme and minimal theory
Uses cross-linguistic data to explain and clarify new concepts
Provides new and revised chapters written by prominent experts in their
respective areas
Includes answers to all exercises via a companion instructor’s website
The latest edition of What is Morphology? remains the ideal textbook for
undergraduate and graduate linguistics students, researchers and scholars
unfamiliar with linguistic morphology, and professionals involved in
industrial applications of linguistics such as speech recognition, natural
language understanding, machine translation, text-to-speech, and natural
language generation.
