Citazioni 

[...] some morphemes are functors on more than one basis: the inflectional affixes in ‘was’ and ‘were’ are also bound substitutes.
- Hockett (1958), a pag.264

If a functor in one language should be borrowed into another as a loanword, retaining its functorial status, then we might naturally expect the immediate consequence to be a grammatical change in the borrowing language- albeit a minor one.
- Hockett (1958), a pag.415
