{"product_id":"expanding-the-lexicon-sabine-arndt-lappe-9783110684940","title":"Expanding the Lexicon: Linguistic Innovation, Morphological Productivity, and Ludicity","description":"The creation of new lexical units and patterns has been studied in different research frameworks, focusing on either system-internal or system-external aspects, from which no comprehensive view has emerged. The volume aims to fill this gap by studying dynamic processes in the lexicon - understood in a wide sense as not being necessarily limited to the word level - by bringing together approaches directed to morphological productivity as well as approaches analyzing general types of lexical innovation and the role of discourse-related factors. The papers deal with ongoing changes as well as with historical processes of change in different languages and reflect on patterns and specific subtypes of lexical innovation as well as on their external conditions and the speakers' motivations for innovating. Moreover, the diffusion and conventionalization of innovations will be addressed. In this way, the volume contributes to understanding the complex interplay of structural, cognitive and functional factors in the lexicon as a highly dynamic domain.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sabine Arndt-Lappe\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3110684942\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783110684940\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e de Gruyter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/02\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.06lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.70d","brand":"Sabine Arndt-Lappe","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43941078171903,"sku":"9783110684940","price":30.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_1aee601c-9d35-41f7-9d30-5e3ec5637669.jpg?v=1681450780","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/expanding-the-lexicon-sabine-arndt-lappe-9783110684940","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
