In the introductory course you've already become acquainted with the study of morphology and word-formation. In this seminar we will have a more detailed look at this field of linguistics. Amongst other things, we will try to find answers to the following questions: What is a word? What structures do English words have? Does English have word-formation rules? What are compounds made of? What is productivity? ... A theoretical discussion of issues of morphology will be accompanied by plenty of exercises. |
