No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1976–77 to 1986–87 (before that, 1972–73 to 1975–76 used the number for Introduction to Structural Linguistics); the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.

A survey of word formation in different languages. Linguistic approaches to the analysis and description of words, with examples and class problems based on a number of actual languages. Consideration will be given not only to languages with a relatively simple morphology, such as Chinese and English, but also to languages like Turkish and Ojibwa.

As printed in the 1976–77 to 1986–87 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original.
