They are studied from three perspectives, namely their status as syntactic constructs, their evolution as becoming morphological items through a process of lexicalisation - whereby they gradually acquire properties of a semantic, morphological, orthographic and phonological nature -, and their use in which several variables such as speech community, mode and textual category are in operation. Additionally, this volume touches upon the problems in establishing clear-cut boundaries between morphology and syntax in order to define their status and evolution. A comprehensive corpus analysis rounds off the study.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers2.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/3/03/430/534/3034305346_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "92.10", "online_price" : "92.10", "our_price" : "92.10", "club_price" : "92.10", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
