- the loss of semantic consistency in a previously meaningful grammatical distinction
- reanalysis of increasingly opaque outcomes of sound changes
We will see how the synchronically morphomic autonomy of these patterns manifest itself also in its influence over the diachronic behaviour. These emergent "metamorphomes" play a significant role in the evolution of morphological processes, including the most extreme form of unmotivated morphology: suppletion.By examining the transition from Latin to Romance languages, we aim to introduce some of the key concepts in contemporary morphology. Our goal is to present these ideas in a concrete manner, with full texture from the linguistic details, and highlight their relevance to various theoretical, cognitive and diachronic understandings of linguistic morphology.
