The morphome debate
This volume surveys the current debate on the morphome, bringing together experts from different linguistic fields (morphology, phonology, semantics, typology, historical linguistics) and from different theoretical backgrounds, including both proponents and critics of autonomous morphology.

The concept of the morphome is one of the most influential but contentious ideas in contemporary morphology. The term is typically used to denote a pattern of exponence lacking phonological, syntactic, or semantic motivation, and putative examples of morphomicity are frequently put forward as evidence for the existence of a purely morphological level of linguistic representation. Central to the volume is the need to attain a deeper understanding of morphomic patterns, developing stringent diagnostics of their existence, exploring the formal grammatical devices required to characterize them adequately, and assessing their implications for language acquisition and change. The extensive empirical evidence is drawn from a wide range of languages, including Archi, German, Kayardild, Latin and its descendants, Russian, Sanskrit, Selkup, Ulwa, and American Sign Language.

This volume surveys the current debate on the morphome, bringing together experts from different linguistic fields (morphology, phonology, semantics, typology, historical linguistics) and from different theoretical backgrounds, including both proponents and critics of autonomous morphology.
