Theory and Typology of Morphemes

Hossep Dolatian, senior technical editor at ServiceNow and visiting scholar at Stony Brook University, examines how past and present stems in Near Eastern languages function within modern morphological theory. Traditionally described as a binary distinction, these stems are more accurately classified as morphomes—systematic morphological patterns that do not align with syntactic or semantic categories. Using Iranian languages as a case study, Dolatian explores the recurrence and variation of morphomic past stems across the region. He also discusses their broader significance in linguistic research, including their impact on fieldwork, experimental studies, and advancements in language technology.
