Syntactic Heads and Word Formation

Syntactic Heads and Word Formation

Marit Julien investigates the relation between morphology and syntax, or more specifically, the relation between the form of inflected verbs and the position of those verbs. She surveys 530 languages and shows that, with the exception of agreement markers, the positioning of verbal
inflectional markers relative to verb stems is compatible with a syntactic approach to morphology.
