Key Points

  • The study aims to clarify the structure of inflected words, focusing on their components.
  • Defines stem and inflectional ending components of inflected words.
  • Categorizes verb and adjective bases as simple, complex, or compound.
  • Identifies relationships between morphemes and their functions.
  • Inflected words are shown to contain distinct components: stems and inflectional endings.
  • The adjectival morpheme exclusively marks specific bases as adjectives.
  • Inflectional endings are composed of modal suffix morphs and premodal suffix morphs.

Abstract

In the language herein described, an inflected word consists of a stem and an inflectional ending, these being defined as follows: A stem consists of a verb base, or of an adjective base plus the adjectival morpheme. A verb base or an adjective base may be simple, complex, or compound (see §4.3.1). The adjectival morpheme occurs with one category of base, and marks these as adjective bases. An inflectional ending consists of a modal suffix morph, sometimes preceded by one or more premodal suffix morphs.
