В ri ngi ng together the results of sixty years of research in typology and universals, this textbook presents a comprehensive survey of Morphosyntax - the combined study of syntax and morphology. Languages employ extremely diverse morphosyntactic strategies for expressing functions, and Croft provides a comprehensive functional framework to account forthe full range ofthese constructions in the world’s languages. The book explains analytical concepts that serve as a basis for cross- linguistic comparison, and provides a rich source ofdescriptive data that can be ånalysed within a range oftheories. The functional framework is useful to linguists documentí ng endangered languages, and those writing reference grammars and other descriptive materials. Each technical term is comprehensively explained, and cross-referenced to related terms, at the end of each chapter and in an online glossary. This is an essential resource on Morphosyntax for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, researchers, and linguistic fieldworkers. WILLIAM CROFT is Professor Emeritus at the University of New Mexico. He is the author of dozens of articles and nine books, includingTypologyand Universals, Radical Construction Grammar, Explaining Language Change^ Cognitive Linguistics (with Alan Cruse), Verbs and Ten Lectures on Construction Grammar and Typology.

В ri ngi ng together the results of sixty years of research in typology and universals, this textbook presents a comprehensive survey of Morphosyntax - the combined study of syntax and morphology. Languages employ extremely diverse morphosyntactic strategies for expressing functions, and Croft provides a comprehensive functional framework to account forthe full range ofthese constructions in the world’s languages. The book explains analytical concepts that serve as a basis for cross- linguistic comparison, and provides a rich source ofdescriptive data that can be ånalysed within a range oftheories. The functional framework is useful to linguists documentí ng endangered languages, and those writing reference grammars and other descriptive materials. Each technical term is comprehensively explained, and cross-referenced to related terms, at the end of each chapter and in an online glossary. This is an essential resource on Morphosyntax for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, researchers, and linguistic fieldworkers. WILLIAM CROFT is Professor Emeritus at the University of New Mexico. He is the author of dozens of articles and nine books, includingTypologyand Universals, Radical Construction Grammar, Explaining Language Change^ Cognitive Linguistics (with Alan Cruse), Verbs and Ten Lectures on Construction Grammar and Typology. |
