Description
Describes the morphemic structure of Chaucer's language, "based only on the facts recorded in Chaucer's writing," without considering the work of his contemporaries or inferring data beyond extant forms in his works. Defines morphemes and their relations to words, outlines Chaucer's phonemics, his morphophonemics, his morphotactics (word-patterns), his derivational morphemes, and his inflexional morphemes.
