This edited collection explores an area of linguistics referred to as ‘the method of exceptions and their correlations’. Exceptions to linguistic rules are studied as clues to understanding and improving the original rule. Topics include passive, irregular verbs, morphology, phonology and more, in languages such as English, Arabic and Russian.
