Asymmetry in morphology
Di Sciullo argues that the asymmetric property of morphological relations is part of the language facility. She proposes a theory of grammar, Asymmetry Theory, according to which generic operations have specific instantiations in parallel deviations of the computational space.OCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record.

Computational models of referring :a study in cognitive science
"To communicate, speakers need to make it clear what they are talking about. The act of referring, which anchors words to things, is a fundamental aspect of language. In this book, Kees van Deemter shows that computational models of reference offer attractive tools for capturing the complexity of referring. Indeed, the models van Deemter presents cover many issues beyond the basic idea of refer…

Universals in comparative morphology :suppletion, superlatives, and the struc…
An argument for, and account of linguistic universals in the morphology of comparison, combining empirical breadth and theoretical rigor. This groundbreaking study of the morphology of comparison yields a surprising result: that even in suppletion (the wholesale replacement of one stem by a phonologically unrelated stem, as in good-better-best) there emerge strikingly robust patterns, virtually…

Grammatical theory and bilingual codeswitching
Theoretically significant work on the grammar of codeswitching by the leading researchers in the field. Codeswitching is the alternate use of two or more languages among bilingual interlocutors. It is distinct from borrowing, which involves the phonological and morphological integration of a word from one language into another. Codeswitching involves the mixing of phonologically distinctive …

Types and tokens: On abstract objects
A consideration of the distinction between the spatiotemporal furniture of the world (tokens) and the types of which they are instances, and an argument that types exist. There is a widely recognized but infrequently discussed distinction between the spatiotemporal furniture of the world (tokens) and the types of which they are instances. Words come in both types and tokens—for example, th…
