Polysynthetic
多式综合语
A term which characterizes a type of language sometimes distinguished in comparative linguistics using structural (as opposed to diachronic) criteria, and focusing on the characteristics of the word: ‘polysynthetic’ or ‘incorporating’ languages demonstrate morphologically complex, long word forms, as in the constructions typical of many American Indian languages, and encountered occasionally in English, in coinages such as anti/dis/establish/ment/arian/ism/s.
比较语言学有时用结构标准(而不是历时标准)并主要按词的特点分出的一种语言类型。“多式综合语”或“多式合成语”的特点是形态复杂,词形很长,如许多美洲印第安语特有的结构,有时也见于英语的新创词如anti/dis/establish/ment/arian/ism/s“各种反国教制度废除主义”。
