• Resumen

  • This is a preliminary examination of locative morphemes called AxPart morphemes as found in word-formation. Free AxPart morphemes that constitute lexical PPs in syntax actively participate in word-formation. Certain bound locative morphemes, on the other hand, produce words that are semantically paraphrased by lexical PPs. English and Japanese complex words of these types simultaneously show dependence and independence between morphology and syntax.
