Abstract:

Bestselling introduction to English morphology, now revised and updated 
What exactly are words? Are they the things that get listed in dictionaries,
or are they the basic units of sentence structure? In the revised and updated
edition of this bestselling textbook Andrew Carstairs-McCarthy explores the
implications of these different approaches to words in English. He explains
the various ways in which words are related to one another, and shows how the
history of the English language has affected word structure.

Topics include: words, sentences and dictionaries; a word and its parts (roots
and affixes); a word and its forms (inflection); a word and its relatives
(derivation); compound words; word structure; productivity; and the historical
sources of English word formation.

Requiring no prior linguistic training, this textbook is suitable for
undergraduate students of English - literature or language - and provides a
sound basis for further linguistic study.

The print edition of this book is distributed in North America by Oxford
University Press under the Edinburgh University Press imprint and with the
Edinburgh ISBN.
