Matthews adopts a word-based rather than morpheme-based approach, emphasizing that wordsnot abstract unitsare the primary carriers of grammatical meaning. He critiques overly formalist models and advocates for morphological description rooted in real language data. The book is both descriptive and theoretical, offering insights into how morphological patterns function across languages, and how they relate to syntax and phonology.
