Isi artikel

The aim of this journal article is to study recursivity in terms of morphological process feeding in the formation of Old English, thus dealing with the relationship that holds among the major lexical creation processes of affixation (suffixation and prefixation), compounding and zero-derivation. The analysis is based on the ascription of each of the predicates to one of the morphological processes and the identification of the base and adjunct constituents of each complex predicate. Two main conclusions can be drawn from this research. First, that no relative ordering of processes can be established, and second, that recursive word-formation in Old English outnumbers non-recursive word-formation.
