This book is the second edition of a highly successful introduction
to the study of word-formation, that is, the ways in which new
words are built on the bases of other words (e.g. happy -
happy-ness), focusing on English. The book's didactic aim is to
enable students with little or no prior linguistic knowledge to do
their own practical analyses of complex words. Readers are
familiarized with the necessary methodological tools to obtain and
analyze relevant data and are shown how to relate their findings to
theoretical problems and debates. The second edition incorporates
new developments in morphology at both the methodological and the
theoretical level. It introduces the use of new corpora and data
bases, acquaints the reader with state-of-the-art computational
algorithms modeling morphology, and brings in current debates and
theories.
