The Classification of Compounds
TL;DR: A new classifi cation is proposed which is at the same time based on consistent criteria and not just valid for one language or for a family of languages, but hopefully universally valid.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inflection and derivation
TL;DR: In this paper, it is maintained that inflection rules (IRs) and derivation rules (DRs) should be considered to be different, and several arguments in favor of this hypothesis are discussed: DRs, but not IRs, change the syntactic category of their base.
Book ChapterDOI
Searching for Universals in Compounding
Emiliano Guevara,Sergio Scalise +1 more
TL;DR: Despite the fact that compounding is themost widespread word-formation strategy in the world's languages, compounds have received little, if any attention in linguistic typology and, in particular, in studies on linguistic universals as discussed by the authors.
The Lexical Integrity Hypothesis in a New Theoretical Universe
Rochelle Lieber,Sergio Scalise +1 more
TL;DR: The atomicity of words has been studied in a wide range of contexts, e.g., the atomicity thesis of Di Sciullo and Williams as mentioned in this paper, or the strong lexicalist hypothesis, or a version of the lexicalism hypothesis of Chomsky (1970), Williams (1978), and numerous others.
