"text": "Morphological typology has long classified languages in terms of how words are built out of morphemes. A typical formulation defines three or four types: isolating, agglutinative, fusional, and sometimes polysynthetic. More nuanced work seeks to break the types down into their component properties, with languages compared based on clusters of these (Plank, 1999) . This newer approach is better able to capture cross-linguistic diversity, but it gives priority to the same aspects of morphological structure as the traditional classification scheme: syntagmatic relationships between formal elements (e.g. how many morphemes there are per word, known as the degree of synthesis (Comrie, 1981) ), and the extent to which formmeaning mappings are isomorphic (e.g. as opposed to the language having inflection classes).",

"text": "Morphological typologies built on these priorities fail to capture important aspects of morphological structure, corresponding to a distinction between two broad notions of morphological complexity that Ackerman and Malouf (2013) call Enumerative Complexity (E-complexity) and Integrative Complexity (I-complexity). E-complexity has to do with the size of a morphological system, e.g., the number of cells in lexemes' paradigms, the system's degree of synthesis, or the number of its inflection classes. I-complexity, on the other hand, has to do with the predictability of the inflected forms of lexemes. A morphological system is I-complex to the extent that the inflected forms of a newly encountered lexeme are unpredictable. This is a function of the distribution of elements in the system. Even systems with high E-complexity, such as a large number of inflection classes, may have low I-complexity, if morphological elements are distributed in ways that make them predictable (Ackerman and Malouf, 2013; Cotterell et al., to appear; Wurzel, 1989) . I-complexity is thus oriented to the internal organization of inflectional systems, rather than their size. However, this organization is not captured by traditional typological measures.",

"text": "In this paper I adopt metrics from graph theory, using them to describe and compare the internal organization of inflectional systems. 1 I analyze inflection classes as nodes in a network that are connected by the morphological structure that they have in common; two classes are connected if they use same exponent(s) to realize a set of morphosyntactic values. Conceptualized in this way, inflectional networks reflect the distribution of exponents in a language's inflectional system, and by extension, the internal organization of that system. Graph theory offers an established, widely applied toolkit for describing the properties of networks, making it a natural choice for application. While some interesting and previously unobserved generalizations emerge from comparison of different languages' inflectional networks, the primary goal of this paper is to demonstrate the usefulness of applying graph-theoretic tools to inflectional data, and to outline some specific ways to quantify and compare inflectional systems. Section 2 motivates an approach to typological comparison based on the paradigmatic distribution of exponents within an inflectional system. Section 3 gives a formal definition of an inflectional network. Section 4 discusses methodological choices. Section 5 introduces a variety of standard graph-theoretic measures, illustrating them using Russian noun inflection. Section 6 then compares nine languages' inflectional systems based on a couple of these measures, showing that their organization exhibits cross-linguistic diversity but also notable commonalities. Finally, Section 7 offers some conclusions and future directions.",

"text": "Work in the abstractive Word and Paradigm tradition (Blevins, 2006) emphasizes the paradigmatic or 'external' dimension of morphological structure: distributions of inflected word-forms within and across paradigms, and how these give rise to competition among inflectional exponents. In this view, word-internal/syntagmatic structure (e.g. stem-affix relations) is a byproduct of the ways in which words are paradigmatically related within and across inflectional paradigms (Ackerman et al., 2016; Blevins, 2016) . In the inter-paradigmatic direction, a central question has to do with how inflected forms cue inflection class membership -the so-called Paradigm Cell Filling Problem (Ackerman et al., 2009) . Table 1 illustrates the issue using a subset of the inflected forms of Russian nouns. (For the moment I assume a typical, four-class description of Russian nouns, although I will ultimately employ a more robust representation in Sections 5 and 6.) In Russian, the accusative singular expo-nent -u (as in knig-u 'book-ACC.SG') is fully informative about inflection class membership, which is to say, about what the other forms of the same lexeme are. If a competent adult speaker encounters a neologism ending in -u and knows that it is accusative singular, all other forms of the noun are predictable (ignoring stress placement). However, inflected forms are not guaranteed to be fully (or at all) informative in this way. Instrumental singular -om is partially informative: the new word must belong to either the STOL class or the MESTO class, but the observed form does not resolve which. The dative plural exponent -am is uninformative, since it appears in every inflection class. The distributions of inflected forms across classes thus determine how and the extent to which allomorphs cue inflection class membership. They likewise define a pattern of relatedness among lexemes, and by extension inflection classes, and reflect the internal organization of the inflectional system. This internal organization has been of particular interest in work that seeks to quantify inflectional complexity. From an I-complexity perspective, the Paradigm Cell Filling Problem is a significant issue because neither child (Lignos and Yang, 2016) nor adult (Bonami and Beniamine, 2016) speech input is sufficient to observe all inflected forms of all lexemes. Speakers must therefore be able to productively predict and generate unobserved inflected forms. The complexity of an inflectional system is a function of the difficulty of this task, given some partial knowledge of a lexeme (Stump and Finkel, 2013) .",

It is also inextricably rooted in the internal organization of inflectional systemsin particular, the distribution of allomorphs across lexemes and classes. Yet tools for directly examining this organization are lacking. 2 Previous work largely boils the distributional properties of an inflectional system down to an estimate of its complexity as a whole (as with Parker's estimate for Russian nouns). While this is appropriate to some goals, single-value measures have the same problem found with all averages: many different distributions can produce the same average. As a basis for comparison across languages this offers an incomplete picture of the extent to which languages are similar or different (Elsner et al., submitted) . Moreover, languages seem to differ in the extent to which paradigmatic relations (proportional analogy) are important to maintaining low I-complexity (Sims and Parker, 2016 ), suggesting the need to directly investigate a system's organization, and not only its resulting complexity.",

"text": "3 Inflectional systems as networks I define an inflection class system as an undirected graph G = (V, E), where the set V of nodes con- Table 1 sists of the inflection classes of the language and the set E of edges consists of unordered pairs of elements in V. In particular, elements in E are defined by exponence shared among pairs of elements in V. Taking the partial set of inflected forms from Table 1 as a simplified example, there are four inflection classes (thus, V(G) = {STOL, MESTO, KNIGA, KOST'}). The classes are distinct overall, but all four have the exponent -am in dative plural, the classes of STOL and KOST' both lack an overt accusative singular exponent, and STOL and MESTO both have -om in instrumental singular. These overlaps define six edges E(G) = {STOL-MESTO, STOL-KOST', STOL-KNIGA, MESTO-KOST', MESTO-KNIGA, KOST'-KNIGA}, as visualized in Figure 1 . 3 Furthermore, the weight of an edge is defined as the number of cells in which two classes overlap. This is shown as a heavier line for the edges connecting nodes STOL and MESTO, and STOL and KOST'. Edge weight captures the observation that classes that overlap in more cells are more similar to each other. In language change, these are more likely to analogically influence each other. Edges can thus be thought of as paths of analogical reasoning-more specifically, the edges represent potential pivots for inflection class shift.",

"text": "The number of inflection classes a given language is analyzed as having is predicated on a segmentation of its words into stems and exponents. Mor-phological segmentation has long presented analytic challenges for description and typology (Beniamine et al., 2017a; Hockett, 1947; Nida, 1949) , formal theory (Matthews, 1972; Spencer, 2012) , and computational modeling (Goldsmith, 2001 (Goldsmith, , 2010 Harris, 1970; Manning, 1998) . Encoderdecoder neural models of inflection (Faruqui et al., 2016; Kann and Sch\u00fctze, 2016; Malouf, 2017; Silfverberg and Hulden, 2018) have recently become popular in part because they are able to sidestep questions of how words should be segmented into morphological units and how to define discrete inflection classes. However, it is difficult to identify and interpret the latent representations that neural network models of inflection actually learn. The analyses below are instead based on manual segmentation, which has the advantage of being maximally linguistically interpretable. 4 In what follows I use a global segmentation strategy (Beniamine et al., 2017b) , in which the 'stem' is the maximal continuous string shared by all inflected forms of a lexeme. There are two exceptions to this principle: 1) Suprasegmental material (e.g. tone) is analyzed separately from segmental material, allowing globally shared segmental material to be identified as part of the stem, even when suprasegmental material is different from one inflected form to another. Suprasegmental material that is not shared by all inflected forms of a lexeme is assigned to the exponent. 2) Purely automatic phonology (e.g. of the type that is vowel harmony in Turkish, or vowel reduction in Russian) is ignored. This method results in bits of form that linguists often classify as stem allomorphy (morphophonological alternations, stem extensions, theme vowels, stress shift, etc.) being assigned to the exponent. 5 Once a segmentation into stem and exponent is made, defining classes is a trivial matter: two words belong to the same inflection class if and only if the full sets of their exponents are identical. This method results in microclasses in the terminology of Beniamine et al. (2017b) , which 4 A goal for the future is to expand the methods and code to include automatic segmentation of words into stems and exponents, e.g. through integration with the Qumin software package (Beniamine, 2018) : https://github.com/XachaB/Qumin 5 Multiple exponents are treated as a single, combined exponent. To the extent that each of multiple exponents has a separate distribution, an analysis in terms of multilayer networks (Bianchoni, 2018) would likely be needed to capture this. Multilayer network representations are more complex and I leave this extension for the future.",

In the Russian nominal network, however, edge weight reflects similarity: more similar classes are connected by heavier edges. This would, oddly, result in the algorithm finding paths through maximally dissimilar classes. Edge weights were thus reversed for calculations of path length. Since Russian nouns have 12 cells, the maximum possible edge weight is 11. An edge weight of 11 was transformed to a value of 1, 10 was transformed to 2, etc. Betweenness centrality is calculated based on the set of shortest paths between v i and v j , for all possible values of i and j (where i 6 = j). The betweenness centrality of a node v k is the number of shortest paths in that set that include v k , where k 6 = i, j.

When classes are more distinct to begin with, such changes may be more likely to result in clustering. Further work would be needed to examine this possibility.
