of English and cross-linguistic patterns of “suspended” morphology in coordinate<br />
constructions. With respect to <strong>the</strong> latter, some languages allow or prefer morphological<br />
marking on an element of just one conjunct, where <strong>the</strong>re are parallel elements<br />
in <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r conjuncts, as in Turkish noun inflection (1).<br />
(1) a. ev-ler-de ve dükkan-lar-da<br />
house-pl-loc and shop-pl-loc<br />
‘in houses and shops’<br />
b. ev ve dükkan-lar-da<br />
house- and shop-pl-loc<br />
‘in houses and shops’ (based on Kabak 2007: 335)<br />
Closer to linguistic home, one can observe this phenomenon in English compounding<br />
and derivation, as shown in (2).<br />
(2) a. we can’t choose between socio- and psycholinguistics<br />
b. a heart- and soulless organization<br />
The paper will conclude that where in Early or Late Modern English structures<br />
such as (3) occur, <strong>the</strong>y can be similarly motivated.<br />
(3) My soul, I resign into <strong>the</strong> hands of my Almighty Creator, whose tender mercies are<br />
over all His works who hateth nothing that He hath made and to <strong>the</strong> Justice and<br />
Wisdom of whose dispensation I willing and cheerfully submit (Mason 1792)<br />
Whe<strong>the</strong>r <strong>the</strong>se zero adverbs can and should be analyzed <strong>the</strong> same way as <strong>the</strong><br />
Turkish inflection or English word-formation examples, however, is ano<strong>the</strong>r<br />
question. The chapter will suggest that while both a paradigmatic selection analysis<br />
(Pounder 2004) and a suspended affixation analysis (Kabak 2007) could be applied,<br />
<strong>the</strong> systemic availability of <strong>the</strong> zero-derived adverb makes <strong>the</strong> former <strong>the</strong>oretically<br />
preferable. However, <strong>the</strong> available data shows that <strong>the</strong>re are some cases in which a<br />
suspended affixation or morphological ellipsis analysis must be invoked.<br />
Section 2 of <strong>the</strong> paper will review <strong>the</strong> historically available options for deadjectival<br />
adverb formation, while Section 3 will focus on <strong>the</strong> available patterns<br />
of morphological marking of derived adverbs in coordinate constructions in<br />
Early and Late Modern English. The chronological focus is placed on English<br />
<strong>from</strong> about 1600 to about 1800, although excursions are made in both directions<br />
where relevant. The data is selected <strong>from</strong> <strong>the</strong> sources listed in <strong>the</strong> References<br />
section; <strong>the</strong> investigation is based on <strong>the</strong> corpora and works listed <strong>the</strong>re in <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
entirety, as well as many additional literary and non-literary texts which provided<br />
no examples of adverbs in coordination at all or none of <strong>the</strong> minority types<br />
outlined in Sections 2 and 3. In <strong>the</strong> subsequent sections, our attention turns to<br />
<strong>the</strong> <strong>the</strong>oretical issues of how to interpret <strong>the</strong> use of zero forms in coordinate<br />
constructions in English adverb-formation (Section 4) and what relation it bears
