The Plot: In a world where technology is rapidly evolving, it is crucial for humanity to understand the process of technological development and its impact on society. The book "Irregularity in Morphology and beyond Studia Typologica [STTYP] 11" delves into the concept of irregularity in morphology and its significance in understanding the evolution of modern knowledge. The book explores the need for developing a personal paradigm for perceiving the technological process as the basis for the survival of humanity and the unification of people in a warring state. The story begins with the introduction of the protagonist, a young linguist named Alex, who is determined to unravel the mysteries of irregularity in morphology. As she delves deeper into her research, she discovers that the concept of irregularity is not well-defined and is often overlooked in the field of linguistics. She sets out to explore the potential regularity behind irregularities and challenge Sturtevant's Paradox, which suggests that irregularities are random and cannot be explained by any underlying pattern. Through her journey, Alex encounters various perspectives on irregularity, including synchronic and diachronic approaches, and examines the interplay between irregular morphology and syntax, pragmatics, and psycholinguistics. She studies languages such as Latin, French, Catalan, Italian, English, German, Greek, Russian, Turkish, Thompson Salish, and Iroquoian, each with their unique features and challenges.
