Syncretism-where a single form serves two or more morphosyntactic functions-is a persistent problem at the syntax-morphology interface. It results from a 'mismatch', whereby the syntax of a language makes a particular distinction, but the morphology does not. This pioneering book provides the first full-length study of inflectional syncretism, presenting a typology of its occurrence across a wide range of languages. It will be welcomed by linguists interested in the relation between words and the larger units of which they are a part.

Oxford University Press, 2007. 388 pp. ISBN: 978-0-19-929741-2 This work focuses on the relatively neglected grammar of names, thus crucially on their morphology and syntax. These areas have not aroused the kind of interest and controversy associated with (the status of) the semantics of names. The study of names made here, however, assumes that grammar is notional, or ontologically based. Thus we shall explore the association between the structu...

Cambridge University Press, 2000 - Всего страниц: 358 Number is the most underestimated of the grammatical categories. It is deceptively simple yet the number system which philosophers, logicians and many linguists take as the norm - namely the distinction between singular and plural (as in cat versus cats) - is only one of a wide range of possibilities to be found in languages around the world. Some languages, for instance, make more distinction...
