摘要：The so-called Level Ordering Hypothesis is one of the most important theoretical claims to account for the well-formedness of a complex word. There is, however, a range of cases where the morphological structural relation of existing words conflicts with the hypothesis. Various attempts have been made to explain such ordering paradoxes. However, they suffer from serious difficulties. In this paper, espousing the notion level-ordered morphology, I will propose a new word formation system where complex words derived or compounded at a certain level can be returned to the earlier levels with conventions.
