In this talk I will present a new formal framework, Lexical-Realizational Functional Grammar (LrFG), which is a lexical-realizational approach to morphology in the sense of Stump’s classification. LrFG is more than just a framework for morphology, though: the framework is a full grammatical architecture, including morphology, prosody and phonology, which together constitute the form part of the architecture, and syntax, semantics and information structure, which together constitute the structure/function/meaning part of the architecture. Indeed, LrFG was born out of the synthesis of two apparently (but not actually) incompatible approaches: Lexical-Functional Grammar and Distributed Morphology. LrFG is thus both a variety of LFG and a variety of DM. LrFG shows that the lexical-realizational DM framework can be understood in a constraint-based way and need not be coupled with a derivational theory of syntax. Instead, by coupling DM with a constraint-based theory of syntax, such as LFG, we gain formal accuracy
