| summary | While "Piggy-backing" (the fact that one system allows correlated traits to piggy back advantageous traits in another system) has been acknowledged for years, its import is still neglected and subject to constant misinterpretations.
This talk tends to address the import of this state of affairs for linguistics in general,
with special attention to the alleged distinction between polysynthetic vs analytic
languages. It is claimed that to the extend this distinction, exists at all, it should be
rephrased in terms of the competence vs performance distinction. |
