Word Structure is an international academic journal covering linguistic morphology and all related disciplines. It is published twice-yearly, in April and October, by Edinburgh University Press and was founded in 2008 under the editorship of Laurie Bauer (Victoria University), Heinz Giegerich (University of Edinburgh), and Greg Stump (University of Kentucky).
The journal is both synchronic and diachronic and empirical and theoretical.[clarification needed] Its stated aim is "to further the understanding of the nature of words, in every sense and in the broadest definition, in the languages of the world by applying to that concept the methodologies of disciplines such as morphology, syntax and phonology, of sociolinguistics and psycholinguistics, of formal, computational, cognitive and historical linguistics and of any other relevant sub-discipline of linguistics."[1]
