On the Relationship between Frequency, Features, and Markedness in Inflection: Experimental Evidence from Russian Nouns

open access: yesLanguages, 2021
Markedness has a long tradition in linguistics as a way to describe linguistic asymmetries. In this paper, I investigate an argument about the necessity of markedness as a tool for capturing the structural distribution of inflectional affixes and ...

open access: yesLanguages, 2022
A long-time generative tradition treats the functional domains of the verb and noun as a result of motion and affixing; however, assuming a close correspondence between the order in syntax and morphology, as in the Mirror Principle proposed by Baker ...

Neurocognitive mechanisms for processing inflectional and derivational complexity in English [PDF]

open access: yesPsihologija, 2013
In the current paper we discuss the mechanisms that underlie the processing of inflectional and derivational complexity in English. We address this issue from a neurocognitive perspective and present evidence from a new fMRI study that the two ...

Logic of Determinative Analysis of Agglutinative and Inflectional Languages (part 1)

open access: yesPolylinguality and Transcultural Practices, 2021
A clear understanding of the systemic differences between interacting languages is necessary to study the interaction of languages in the mind of a bilingual (multilingual) personality and improve the practice of teaching languages in a transcultural ...

Paradigmatic Relations Interact During the Production of Complex Words: Evidence From Variable Plurals in Dutch

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2021
A growing body of work in psycholinguistics suggests that morphological relations between word forms affect the processing of complex words. Previous studies have usually focused on a particular type of paradigmatic relation, for example the relation ...

open access: yesLingBaW, 2022
This article aims to propose a treatment of the internal morphological organization of words, based on the idea that morphology is part of syntactic computation. We disagree with Distributed Morphology model, whereby morphology is identified with a post-

Enclisis, mesoclisis and inflection in Italo-Romance varieties: A minimalist analysis

open access: yesLingBaW, 2023
This contribution addresses a central theme in morphological analysis, namely the relationship between clitics and inflectional elements. Important contributions on the point are due to Anderson (1992) and Marantz (1988), who, in different ways, connect

Inflection Point Inflation and Time Dependent Potentials in String Theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We consider models of inflection point inflation. The main drawback of such models is that they suffer from the overshoot problem. Namely the initial condition should be fine tuned to be near the inflection point for the universe to inflate. We show that
