Reviews

Herce is exactly right to expand the discussion of morphomes to more languages and language families. Having read many grammars myself, I am amazed that he has managed to read so many, and astounded that he has condensed them in such a brief and insightful manner. * Michael Maxwell, Linguist List *


Author Information

Borja Herce is a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Comparative Language Science at the University of Zurich, having previously studied at the University of the Basque Country and the University of Surrey. His main areas of interest include morphological typology, language change, Romance and Otomanguean languages, and quantitative and corpus linguistics approaches to both description and explanation. His latest research revolves around the description, analysis, and learnability of paradigmatic structures of different kinds (morphomic vs morphemic), and the synchronic profile and diachronic trajectories of morphological complexity across the world's languages.
