Citazioni

In describing and identifying morphemic alternants (allomorphs) is frequently convenient to distinguish two types: basic and non-basic. This distinction may include phonologically defined allomorphs or morphologically defined allomorphs or both. [...] it is possible to select one alternant as basic and the others as [...] 'derived'.
