Produktbeschreibung

The Yearbook of Morphology 2002 discusses the morphology of a variety of pidgin and Creole languages which appear to have much more morphology than traditionally assumed. Other topics include the morphological use of truncation for the coinage of proper names in Germanic and Romance languages, the way affixes are combined and ordered in complex words, and the complex linguistic principles behind these orderings.
