Abstract

Distributed Morphology (DM), Which is the title of our research, Consider as challenging traditional linguistics by proposing a unified system for building both complex word and sentential structures Instead of relying on a separate lexicon for word Formation . Many of the particulars of the theory of distributed morphology grew from discussions between Morris and Marantz , starting around 1990 , the seeds of the theory planted in Morris is thinking , as summarized in . Marantz is contribution identifies as crucial to the birth of DM . This theory radically that joined two core assumption: (1) syntactic approaches to word structure (2) a rejection of a phonologized set of phonological pieces stemming from realizational theories of morphology . DM argues that both words and Sentences are Constructed dynamically through the Same Syntactic operations, this abstract will introduce the Core principles of DM and illustrate its application with an example, we depended on: Syntactic hierarchy all the way down: Elements within both syntax and morphology participate in hierarchical structures, similar to how sentences are built. No lexicon: Word Formation isn’t Pre-Stored in a dedicated lexicon: words are assembled on-the-Fly during Syntactic derivation. Three Component lists: DM relies on three lists: the Formative list (syntactic building blocks) The exponency list (Phonological Content), and the Feature list (Semantic/ Syntacit properties). Late insertion: Phonological realization occurs late in the process, after Syntactic Structure is built.
