Citazioni

The [...] word 'unthinkingly' is [...] formally parallel to the word 'reformers', each being built up on a radical element [...] preceded by an element ('un-', 're-') that conveys a [...] concrete significance but that cannot be used independently, and [...] two elements ('-ing', ' -ly'; '-er', '-s') that limit the application of the radical concept in a relational sense.
- Sapir (1921), Pag. 57

The Hupa word 'te-s-e-ya-te' 'I will go', [...] consists of a radical element '-ya-' 'to go', three essential prefixes and a formally subsidiary suffix.
- Sapir (1921), Pag. 68

[...] it is highly symptomatic of the nature of the drift away from word clusters that we do not object to nuances as such, we object to having the nuances formally earmarked for us.
