Defaults in morphological theory

Defaults in morphological theory / edited by Nikolas Gisborne and Andrew Hippisley.

This volume sets out four different default-based frameworks for describing morphology. Major proponents of these frameworks address a range of questions about the role of defaults in the lexicon, such as the place of morphology in the grammar and the challenge of meaning-form dissociations that pla...
