  Morphology (linguistics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The part of morphology that covers the relationship between syntax and morphology is called morphosyntax, and it concerns itself with inflection and paradigms, but not with word-formation or compounding.
Lexical morphology is the branch of morphology that deals with the lexicon, which, morphologically conceived, is the collection of lexemes in a language.
In morpheme-based morphology, word-forms are analyzed as sequences of morphemes.

Morphology is a subdiscipline of linguistics that studies word structure.
Morphology is the branch of linguistics that studies such rules across as many languages as possible.
One of the largest sources of complexity in morphology is that this sort of one-to-one correspondence between meaning and form hardly ever holds.

 Distributed Morphology
Distributed Morphology (DM) is a theory of the architecture of grammar first proposed in the early 1990s at MIT by Morris Halle, Alec Marantz and their students and colleagues including Eulalia Bonet, Rolf Noyer, Jim Harris, Heidi Harley, Andrea Calabrese, David Embick and others.
DM is piece-based in the sense that the elements of both syntax and of morphology are understood as discrete instead of as (the results of) morphophonological processes.
Separationism characterizes theories of morphology in which the mechanisms for producing the form of syntactico-semantically complex expressions are separated from, and not necessarily in a simple correspondence with, the mechanisms which produce the form ('spelling') of the correponding phonological expressions.

Morphology is the branch of linguistics that studies such rules across and within languages.
This is, however, not so; the fundamental idea of morphology is that the words of a language are related to each other by different kinds of rules.
The notion of a lexeme is very central to morphology, and thus, many other notions can be defined in terms of it.

His continuing interest is to see how the full range of natural human languages fits into a formal theory of morphology and syntax that is built around the notions of substantive universal principles and a finite number of discrete parameters.
I have conducted experiments on bare nominal idioms in child English, on null pronouns in L2 Spanish, on the role of tense in the acquisition of factivity, and on the Spanish subjunctive in irrealis contexts.
His research focuses on aspects of morphology that are ‘syntactically relevant,’ such as inflectional morphology, phrasal nominalizations, and functional categories, seeking to explore their implications for the architecture of the morphological component and theories of morphosyntactic interaction.
