used to derive competence-based models of linguistic
performance that claim to be psychologically realistic and
unify research in linguistics, language acquisition, and

DF a theory of the structure of natural language and how different
aspects of linguistic structure are related. The name of the
theory expresses two ways in which it differs from other
theories of linguistic structure and organization. LFG is a
lexical theory: relations between linguistic forms, such as the
relation between an active and passive form of a verb, are
generalizations about the structure of the lexicon, not
transformational operations that derive one form on the basis
of another one. And LFG is a functional theory: grammatical
relations such as subject and object are basic, primitive
constructs, not defined in terms of phrase-structure
configurations or of semantic notions such as agent or patient.

This hypothesis entails the claim that English words such as deceive,
receive and conceive are not formed by regular prefixation processes,

The name of the theory expresses twoways in which it differs from other theories oflinguistic structure and organization.

And LFG is a functional theory:grammatical relations such as subject and objectare basic, primitive constructs, not defined interms of phrase-structure configurations or ofsemantic notions such as agent or patient.

morphemic tier hypothesis (mth)D6.2.24DF a hypothesis first introduced into the theory of
Autosegmental phonology in McCarthy (1981)which entails the claim that every morphememaking up a word is assigned a separate tier, i.e.,a separate and autonomous level ofrepresentation. [LEX]
morpholexical ruleD8.4.4.2DF a kind of lexical redundancy rule proposed by Lieber
(1980) to relate allomorphs which are listed inthe lexicon, to each other. Morpholexical rulesapply in a subcomponent of the grammar whichprecedes both the word formation componentproper and the phonological component. Themain motivation for this type of rule is that thereare cases in which word formation rules need tohave access to derived allomorphs before thephonology applies. [LEX]

DF a hypothesis proposed in Aronoff (1976) which saysthat all regular word-formation processes areword-based. A new word is formed by applying aregular rule to a single already existing word.Both the new word and the existing one aremembers of major lexical categories. Thishypothesis entails the claim that English wordssuch as deceive, receive and conceive are notformed by regular prefixation processes, since thebase ceive is not an existing word which belongsto a major lexical category.
