ABSTRACT
Psycholinguistic research on the processing of morphologically complex words has addressed the recognition and production of derived, inflected and compound words, that is, the operations of affixation and compounding (for reviews, see, e.g., Luzzatti, Mondini, & Semenza, this volume; Thompson, Kielar, & Fix, this volume). The aim of the present chapter is to contribute to this literature by reviewing a case of an individual with agrammatism in a morphologically rich language that also enables the study of some aspects of morphology that, due to the limitations of the languages studied this far, have not been possible in previous reports. Before presenting the case we first review these interesting aspects of the present language, Finnish.
