This book tackles morphology from a cognitive viewpoint and links
theory and practice. Its practical aim is to provide a
comprehensive description of the two essential areas of vocabulary
building: derivation and compounding. It develops skills in
analyzing morphological expressions, familiarizing readers with the
mechanisms used in forming complex words. It highlights the impact
on form of the three theories of word meanings alongside coverage
of Langacker's cognitive grammar. Category theory, domain theory
and construal theory are introduced and described, with exercises
and questions to develop practical skills. Hamawand brings insights
from the semantics of cognitive linguistics into a field that lacks
a book from this viewpoint. The book features a companion website
with further exercises and questions, and will provide an
innovative perspective for students on linguistics courses looking
at grammar and morphology.
