Bringing together a team of well-known scholars, this book examines the relationship between linguistic cognition and the morphological diversity found in the world's languages. It includes research from across linguistic and cognitive science sub-disciplines that looks at the nature of typological diversity and its relationship to cognition, touching on concepts such as complexity, interconnectedness within systems, and emergent organization. Chapters employ experimental, computational, corpus-based and theoretical methods to examine specific morphological phenomena, and an overview chapter provides a synthesis of major research trends, contextualizing work from different methodological and philosophical perspectives. Offering a novel perspective on how cognition contributes to our understanding of word structure, it is essential reading for psycholinguists, theoreticians, typologists, computational modelers and cognitive scientists.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51235546562833,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51235547906321,"sku":"NIN9781108790949","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":52111048868113,"sku":"NGR9781108790949","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52659846054161,"sku":"NLS9781108790949","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1108790941.jpg?v=1786278352"},{"product_id":"morphological-diversity-and-linguistic-cognition-book-andrea-d-sims-9781108479899","title":"Morphological Diversity and Linguistic Cognition","description":"Morphological structures interact dynamically with lexical processing and storage, with the parameters of morphological typology being partly dependent on cognitive pathways for processing, storage and generalization of word structure, and vice versa.

At its core, the book revolves around a comparison of the main approaches to morphological structure, which are discussed in the context of a continuum rather than regarded as separate entities. Adopting a balanced view to assessing these theories, and fully updated throughout, this third edition also features:                         Discussion of morphological phenomena from a wide variety of the world's languages                Presentation of the interfaces between morphology and syntax, and between morphology and phonology                A brand new chapter on \"Doing morphological analysis\" covering principles of descriptive analysis                Expanded exploratory exercises to challenge readers beyond the content of each chapter                New and freely available online materials, including data sets to correspond to the exploratory exercises, extra guidance for readers on how to tackle these exercises, and extended illustrations of descriptive morphological analysis.                   Each of the twelve chapters also features a short summary, suggestions for further reading and exercises with answers provided. Combined with the book's theoretical discussion and balanced approach, these features make Understanding Morphology the ideal book for both students of linguistics and researchers in morphology seeking a clear overview of the subject.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52387939614993,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":52387939680529,"sku":"NGR9781138794818","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781138794818.jpg?v=1782847870"},{"product_id":"inflectional-defectiveness-book-andrea-d-sims-9781107045842","title":"Inflectional Defectiveness","description":"Paradigmatic gaps ('missing' inflected forms) have traditionally been considered to be the random detritus of a language's history and marginal exceptions to the normal functioning of its inflectional system. Arguing that this is a misperception, Inflectional Defectiveness demonstrates that paradigmatic gaps are in fact normal and expected products of inflectional structure. Sims offers an accessible exploration of how and why inflectional defectiveness arises, why it persists, and how it is learned. The book presents a theory of morphology which is rooted in the implicative structure of the paradigm. This systematic exploration of the topic also addresses questions of inflection class organization, the morphology-syntax interface, the structure of the lexicon, and the nature of productivity. Presenting a novel synthesis of established research and new empirical data, this work is significant for researchers and graduate students in all fields of linguistics.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52598848061713,"sku":"NLS9781107045842","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781107045842.jpg?v=1786107774"},{"product_id":"i-will-remember-you-book-andrea-d-sims-9781412039697","title":"I Will Remember You","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52655560753425,"sku":"NLS9781412039697","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781412039697.jpg?v=1762221174"},{"product_id":"inflectional-defectiveness-book-andrea-d-sims-9781107623712","title":"Inflectional Defectiveness","description":"Paradigmatic gaps ('missing' inflected forms) have traditionally been considered to be the random detritus of a language's history and marginal exceptions to the normal functioning of its inflectional system.
