Morphological Blocking in a Computational Context

I wrote a term paper for a Morphology class at Davis recently, and decided to post it here in its entirety. To anyone interested in the topic of blocking: enjoy!

WALS goes online.

Many of you language geeks may have heard of the (relatively new) World Atlas of Language Structures, a project carried out primarily by researchers at the Max Planck Institute of Evolutionary Anthropology in Germany.

The volume, which has maps of linguistic features (a relative first) including word order, morphological features and more, has proven a bit pricy. Not anymore, however: the entire work is now available online for FREE! It’s even better than pie and chips.

Give it a look at http://www.wals.info/.
