• Morphosyntactic complexity: A typology of lexical splits (2015, methodology): “…instance, we say that suppletion is a noncanonical realization of morphosyntactic specification, but can then specify canonical suppletion, as in Corbett 2007a. Similarly, inflection classes are themselves noncanonical, but we can go on to establish criteria for canonical inflection classes, as…”
• Canonical derivational morphology (2010, methodology): “In canonical typology, inflectional morphology has been treated by Baerman, Brown & Corbett (2005: 27-35), Spencer (2005), Stump (2005b) (2006), Corbett (2007a, 2007b, -3 - 2009), Nikolaeva & Spencer (2008), Stump & Finkel (2008) and Thornton (2008), and phonology by Hyman (2009).”
• Limits on Allomorphy: A Case Study in Nominal Suppletion (2015, background): “However, while diachrony and frequency effects relate to typological generalizations, locality effects as proposed here are assumed to be universal (see Corbett 2007) and as such allow no exceptions; see Kiparsky 2008 for discussion.”
• How Much Context Is Enough? Two Cases of Span-Conditioned Stem Allomorphy (2015, background): “…kind-je kind-er-tje-s child-DIM child-er-DIM-PL ‘little child’ ‘little children’ Crucially, the singular form *kind-er-tje is rejected by many speakers (some appear to accept it; the argument against the Node Adjacency Hypothesis can only be made on the basis of those speakers who lack the form).”
• What is Phonological Typology (2014, background): “(Corbett 2007: 9; my italics— LMH] In prosody, canonical systems combine properties to meet a basic function (Hyman 2012).”
• Variable morphotactics in Information-based Morphology1 (2015, methodology): “Following the lead of Corbett (2003, 2007, 2012), Brown, Chumakina & Corbett (2013) and others, we attempt to [3] The present proposal stands in a wider context of neo-templatic approaches: within syntax, topological descriptions of order (e.g. Höhle 1986) have been developed into formal theories…”
