We can follow these four choices down a total of 16 "decision tree" pathways to reach the particular form of morphological analysis we decide to use.
Or, if you like, we choose between 16 morphological "roles" we can play when we carry out our analyses.
Happy theorising! ✨

You'll notice we've expanded the number of articles we publish in each issue.
We're very lucky to get a growing volume of top-notch analysis coming our way year after year.
So we're listening to our authors, and taking steps to create a faster pipeline from "online first" to issue allocation.
