<p>utrecht</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''Layered morphology''' is a term introduced in Simpson &amp;amp; Withgott (1986) to distinguish morphological systems which imply constituent structure from morphological systems which make use of templates (see [[template morphology]]). Two major differences between these types of systems are: (a) layered morphology gives rise to headed structures, while template morphology does not; and (b) layered morphology is constrained by some principle of [[adjacency]], while template morphology is not.<br /> <br /> === Example ===<br /> [[<br /> English]] and [[Dutch]] have layered morphologies, while [[Arabic]] and [[Navajo]] have template morphologies.<br /> <br /> === Link ===<br /> <br /> [http://www2.let.uu.nl/UiL-OTS/Lexicon/zoek.pl?lemma=Layered+morphology&amp;lemmacode=588 Utrecht Lexicon of Linguistics]<br /> <br /> === References ===<br /> <br /> * McCarthy, J. 1981.
