On the predictiveness of Natural Morphology1

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  28 November 2008

Institut für Sprachwissenschaft, Universität Wien

Extract

1. Natural Morphology as represented in the forthcoming volume by Dressler, Mayerthaler, Panagl & Wurzel (1985) came into being about 1977 as an attempt to create a counter-part to Stampean Natural Phonology and to develop and systematize Jakobsonian reflections on morphological universals. In this paper I will present and exemplify some ideas and findings of Natural Morphology, of course from my own specific point of view.
