| Citazioni | It [...] becomes crucial to know what the head of any particular word is. Williams [Williams, E., 1981a, On the notions "lexically related" and "head of a word", "Lin 12", pp. 245-274.] answers this question by postulating a "Righthand Head Rule", which states that the rightmost branch in any tree showing the internal structure of a word will always be the head. |
