{"product_id":"9780521102759","title":"The Syntax-Morphology Interface : A Study of Syncretism (Cambridge Studies in Linguistics)","description":"\u003cp\u003eSyncretism - where a single form serves two or more morphosyntactic functions - is a persistent problem at the syntax-morphology interface. It results from a 'mismatch' whereby the syntax of a language makes a particular distinction but the morphology does not. This pioneering book provides a full-length study of inflectional syncretism, presenting a typology of its occurrence across a wide range of languages. The implications of syncretism for the syntax-morphology interface have long been recognised: it argues either for an enriched model of feature structure (thereby preserving a direct link between function and form), or for the independence of morphological structure from syntactic structure. This book presents a compelling argument for the autonomy of morphology and the resulting analysis is illustrated in a series of formal case studies within Network Morphology. It will be welcomed by all linguists interested in the relation between words and the larger units of which they are a part.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42737530601547,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":2424.42,"currency_code":"THB","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0641\/0023\/7387\/files\/9780521102759-1.jpg?v=1783343400","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.co.th\/products\/9780521102759","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Thailand","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
