| Suppletion manifests itself when some of forms of a word are based on different stems, such as the opposition between I go/I went in English. In morphology, suppletion has two related meanings: (i) suppletion is a diachronic process by which two words mix their forms to give rise to a single word with a paradigm with suppletive alternation; (ii) suppletion is the most extreme case of morphological irregularity, where stems used in the same paradigm are synchronically unrelated, independently of etymology. In both senses, suppletion is a property of paradigms and as such mostly related to inflectional morphology. |
