Conclusions -- References -- Lexical index -- Subject indexThis book fills a gap in lexical morphology, especially with reference to analogy in English word-formation.

However, the analogical mechanism also deserves investigation on account of its relevance to neology in English. This volume provides in-depth qualitative analyses and stimulating quantitative findings in this realm.English languageGrammarLanguage and languagesAnalogy.Neologisms.Occasionalisms.Word-Formation.English languageGrammar.Language and languages.428.2HF 240rvkMattiello Elisa1609327MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910814073303321Analogy in word-formation3958697UNINA
