Morphological Productivity and the Mental Lexicon Conclusion
You should now have a general understanding of morphological productivity and the phonological, morphological, syntactic, and semantic factors that constrain it. We have also introduced you to various ways in which morphological productivity can be tested and to models of the mental lexicon. This is one of the newest and fastest-developing areas of linguistics.
We depart from previous ones in not having a section on Kujamaat Jóola. The reason for the lacuna is simply that we do not have access to the sort of data that would allow us to discuss productivity in Kujamaat Jóola. Nor are there enough Kujamaat Jóola speakers living in close proximity to experimental laboratories of the sort that are capable of modern psycholinguistic and neurolinguistic experimentation. We hope, though, that the small window that we have opened will inspire a student to make the journey to Basse Casamance that we have not been able to undertake and to begin the study of morphological productivity and the mental lexicon in Kujamaat Jóola.
Our hope is not entirely baseless. One of us once published a couple of articles on Arapesh, a language of Papua New Guinea, based entirely on data from the one grammar of the language, published by Reo Fortune in the 1940s. Lise Dobrin, then a graduate student in Chicago, read the articles and became so fascinated that she went off to Papua New Guinea and spent 18 months studying and analyzing the language. She wrote her dissertation on Arapesh and continues to do research on the language and the community. So keep us posted.
