This paper presents a short review of arguments in favor of inferential-realizational, rule-based, Word and Paradigm theories of morphology, and against lexical-incremental, morpheme-based, Item and Arrangement theories. Morpheme-based theories are assumed by most linguists who do not specialize in morphology, while most contemporary morphologists favor Word and Paradigm theories, developed particularly in work by Peter H. Matthews, Stephen R. Anderson, Mark Aronoff and Gregory T. Stump.

Abstract

This paper presents a short review of arguments in favor of inferential-realizational, rule-based, Word and Paradigm theories of morphology, and against lexical-incremental, morpheme-based, Item and Arrangement theories. Morpheme-based theories are assumed by most linguists who do not specialize in morphology, while most contemporary morphologists favor Word and Paradigm theories, developed particularly in work by Peter H. Matthews, Stephen R. Anderson, Mark Aronoff and Gregory T. Stump.
