Const raints on Deriv ation  The suffix – ant Contest  contestant Defend  defendant Hunt  *Huntant  Hunter WHY? The suffix –ant can combine only with Latinate bases.

Constraints on Derivation  The suffix – en white  whiten dark  darken green  *greenen WHY? The suffix –en can combine only a monosyllabic base that ends in an obstruent (pp. 149–150). How about large ? The suffix –en can combine only a monosyllabic germanic base that ends in an obstruent (Kwary, 2004).  largen ?
