At the end of the course, students will understand the principles of word structure a
and the linguistic relationships between word structure and the systems of phono-
logy, syntax, and semantics, will be familiar with major theoretical issues and
problems in the study of morphology, and will be able to perform morphological
analyses on samples of language.

Topics will vary, but will consist of readings and lectures on morphemes, grammati-
cal categories, morphosyntax, structuralist theory, early generative approaches,
autosegmental phonology, prosodic morphology, and the interfaces between morphology,
phonology, and syntax. A number of graded tasks will be assigned, such as
quizzes, tests, and various writing assignments done either in or outside of class.

Students in this course are expected to be familiar with and adhere to the Univer-
sity of Georgia policy on academic honesty, according to which all violations of
academic honesty will be handled. Students may participate in graded group projects
at the instructor's discretion.
