Abstract:

The study of morphology is central to linguistics, and morphotactics –
the general principles by which the parts of a word form are arranged
– is essential to the study of morphology. Drawing on evidence from a
range of languages, this is a comprehensive and up-to-date account of
the principles of morphotactic analysis. Stump proposes that the
arrangement of word forms' grammatically significant parts is an
expression of the ways in which a language's morphological rules
combine with one another to form more specific rules. This
rule-combining approach to morphotactics has important implications
for the synchronic analysis of both inflectional and derivational
morphology, and it provides a solid conceptual platform for
understanding both the processing of morphologically complex words and
the paths of morphological change. Laying the groundwork for future
research on morphotactic analysis, this is essential reading for
researchers and graduate students in linguistics, and anyone
interested in understanding language structure.
