Summary; References; IndexIn Minimal Words in a Minimal Syntax the author combines a detailed description of the morphological structure of words in Swedish with a daring new approach to theoretical morphology, based on the Minimalist Program of Chomsky (1995) (as developed for syntactic structure). The X-bar theoretic approach to word structure of the Principles and Parameters framework is replaced by a rule free approach incorporating only Merge and Move as structure building devices. The author argues that stems have no word class features, which are provided inflectional affixes (including theme vowels etc.)Linguistik aktuell ;Bd. 19.Swedish language -- CongressesSwedish language -- Word formationSwedish languageElectronic books.Swedish language -- Congresses.Swedish language -- Word formation.Swedish language.439.75Josefsson GunloĢˆg954130AU-PeELAU-PeELAU-PeELBOOK9910456727403321Minimal Words in a Minimal Syntax2157702UNINA
