- There are certain ambiguities in these forms because of homophonous endings, but this does not concern us at this point.
- It would be possible to say that a form such as man has two linguisememes: (1) that of a noun and (2) that of a verb. However, it is probably preferable to include all distributions under one complex linguisememe and to consider the linguisemes as relatable by virtue of the fact that identical forms may have such diverse distributions.
- As a matter of field procedure, one should assume that hesitancy about relating homophonous forms should be interpreted as meaning that such forms are not to be related.
- The implied technique of asking a native speaker whether or not he relates particular forms is a practical approach to the more accurate, but as yet only theoretical, procedure of describing statistically the stimulus-response correlations, and on the basis of vast quantities of such data, plotting relationships by areas of occurrence and statistical frequencies.
- For a somewhat fuller description of these problems, see Eugene A. Nida, Morphology (Ann Arbor, 1949).
- A distinction between such layers in any one language depends upon the type of structure which the language possesses.
- These constructions have been limited to the fewest possible constituents so as not to confuse the issue.
- Such terms are suggested only as a means of indicating the analogical relationships between the various semantic features of a language.
