| Citazioni | Morphological sequence classes are of two principal types: (1) those which have at least one nonrooot immediate constituent and (2) those which have only root-containing immediate constituents. The second type of sequence class has syntactic parallels. Morphological sequence classes of the first type may include the following:
1. Stem plus affix [...].
2. Stem plus replacive [...].
3. Stem plus subtractive [...].
4. Stem plus stem [...].
5. Stem plus inflectional formative [...]. Sequence classes of the second type are parallel to or in contrast with the syntactic structure. In English they may be illustrated by the following:
Syntactic sequence classes in morphological constructions:
1. Adjective plus noun, e.g. 'blackbird', 'greenhouse', and 'Redcoat'.
2. Noun plus noun, e.g. 'goldfish', 'beefsteak', and 'seacoast'. [...]
Nonsyntactic sequence classes in morphological constructions:
1. Adverb plus verb, e.g. 'backfire', 'upset', and 'outcry'.
2. Verb plus noun, e.g. 'playground', 'gocart', and 'outcry'. [...] |
