This text addresses issues in morphosyntax. It covers areas including: noun incorporation; the morphosyntax of periphrastic participal constructions; derivation of lexical integrity; and mismatches between morphosyntax and morphophonology.
Of particular interest to morphologists and syntacticians Issues in Morphosyntax aims to contribute to the discussion on the question whether there exists a separate morphological module in the grammar, distinct from the other modules, with special focus on the connection of mor…
