Stephen R. Anderson explores the historical decline of morphology in generative grammar and its resurgence. In the early 1950s to the 1970s, morphology was overshadowed by phonology and syntax, but recent studies have reemphasized its importance. The Lexicalist Hypothesis, proposed by Chomsky, suggested that syntax and morphology are independent, but this view has been challenged by evidence showing that morphology interacts with syntax in various ways. Morphology and syntax interact in several ways. For example, configurational properties involve how words are structured within larger syntactic frameworks, such as case assignment in nouns. Agreement properties involve how words agree with other words in a structure, such as adjectives agreeing with nouns. Inherent properties are features of words that are essential to their function, such as gender or number. The Breton verb agreement morphology is a specific example of syntactically relevant morphology. Verbs in Breton can be marked for tense and person/number. When a subject NP is present, the verb shows only tense distinctions, while when the subject is absent, it shows person/number agreement. This interaction is explained by the binding conditions of the Government/Binding theory, where agreement morphology is treated as a pronominal element. The analysis of Breton agreement morphology shows that it behaves like a pronominal, which is bound by the subject NP. This interaction highlights the importance of morphology in syntax. The study also discusses the distribution of pronouns in Breton, showing that certain pronouns appear only in specific positions, such as topic or subject. The article also examines the concept of inflectional morphology, distinguishing it from derivation. Inflectional morphology involves changes within a word, while derivation creates new words. The discussion highlights that inflectional categories are those that are relevant to syntax, as opposed to derivation, which creates new lexical items. The article concludes that morphology and syntax are closely related, and that the study of morphology is essential for understanding the structure of language. The analysis of Breton agreement morphology provides a strong example of how morphology interacts with syntax, challenging the notion that morphology is separate from syntax. The study emphasizes the importance of considering morphology as an integral part of syntax, rather than a separate domain.Stephen R.
