La morfología distributiva y algunas cuestiones de la flexión verbal del español.

Abstract

Distributive Morphology (MD) does not supposes, as other theories of word formation do, that words (particularly verbs) are inserted fully specified in syntactic structures. On the contrary, its central claim is that they are inserted according to the features handed by syntax, which gives MD a great flexibility for analyzing a variety of morphological phenomena. This paper presents the MD theory’s essential postulates and its application to some aspects of Spanish verbal inflexion, particularly preterit second person and imperative forms.
