    Abstract

    The topic of this column is elaboration, following Syea’s (2002: 200) call for a reassessment of the term. After discussing what is meant by elaboration, and how it differs from restructuring, I concentrate on one aspect – morphological elaboration – and go into its sources and the processes that may be involved – especially language transfer. I conclude with some suggestions for further research.
