Presents a radically semantic approach to syntax and morphology. It offers a methodology which demonstrates, on an empirical basis, that syntax is neither ""autonomous"" nor ""arbitrary"", but that it ""follows from semantics"". The author develops a semantic metalanguage based on lexical universals.
