Abstract
In the course of time it sometimes happens that morphemes which behaved previously as separate words are fused together into one word. The order of the two morphemes within the new word gives us some information on the syntax of the language at the time immediately preceding the fusion: This order reflects either the unmarked order of the words the two morphemes derive from (the notion of ‘unmarked order’ is defined below) or an order of these words that was not necessarily unmarked but never or hardly ever permitted another word to intervene between the two words.
