What are the GENERAL findings in Meinzer et al. (2009) |
Results: -additional activity with the formation of two-step nouns in comparison to one-step nouns -This supports the compositional view that words are parsed and accessed via their constituents/morphemes -The brain computes the degree of complexity -Processing requires not a single part of the brain but a large bilateral neural network |
|
|
What is the general discussion (storage/computation) and what are the current assumptions? |
frequent words are stored and recognised and retrieved much quicker than less frequent words less frequent words are computed only the plural of highly frequent words are stored |
|
|
What is the difference between affixes and clitics (what are the criteria)? |
1. Clitics are prosodically deficient, need a prosodic host 2. the clitic's host does not necessarily have to be of a certain lexical category 3. the clitic's position can be determined by syntax 4. can have a corresponding full form 5. the clitic might have the same distribution as the full form (=simple clitic) or a differing one (=special clitic) 6. clitics can be attached before and after the host -->no violation of lexical integrity No syntactic placement rule may intervene within a morphologically complete word |
|
|
What does it mean for there to be a 'match of features'? |
The syntactic and morphological features of words in a sentence match |
|
|
demarcation: compounds vs phrases |
Phrases can undergo morphological affixation but they are exceptional and restricted to productive affixes (like -er) |
|
|
Suffixes triggering alternations |
the derivational suffixes which appear in level 2 cause a phonological alteration of the root. These also can change stress and the base. |
|
|
How are syllables formed? |
They obey onset maximisation, resyllabifying coda consonants to the onset of the following consonant |
|
|
What are legal consonant clusters? |
Clusters which the specific language allows |
