| Popis | Based on their morphology, Czech adjectives can be divided into at least three classes. The first class of adjectives has the suffix n in between the root and the agreement marker, e.g., jem-n-y ´ ‘smooth.' The second class of adjectives has the suffix k, e.g., leh-k-y ´ `light'. In the third class, the obligatory agreement marker attaches to the bare root, e.g., slab-O-y ´ ‘weak.’ The absence of a stem marker is depicted by the O in the first column of Table 3. In this paper, we present an analysis of these three classes in Nanosyntax (Starke 2018), relying on the notion of root size (Caha et al. 2019). |
