| Research Abstract |
The present study first conducted an overwhelming research of English suffixes about their properties of stress preservation and root-attachability, utilizing the Shorter Oxford English Dictionary(CD-ROM). Combining the results with those obtained from the author's previous study about stress placement behavior of the suffixes, considerations were made as to how English suffixes were distributed in its lexicon with respect to the classhood. It is further considered how well the distribution can be predicted from Partial Ordering Theory.
