  1. R-28 · Subject neighbour · directed

    Allomorph → Suppletion

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Suppletion involves markedly different forms within a paradigm. Treating them as allomorphs captures the function they share while recognizing that the differences go beyond ordinary sound alternation.

  2. R-455 · Distinction · directed

    Suppletion → Allomorph

    Meaning of the relation type
    Ein Atlasprofil grenzt den Zielbegriff ausdrücklich ab. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Suppletion is an extreme contrast between forms within a single paradigm, often involving historically distinct stems. Allomorphy covers variation in how a morpheme is realised more generally. Analyses can treat suppletive forms as allomorphs while reserving suppletion for the more extreme alternation.

  3. R-456 · Subject neighbour · directed

    Suppletion → Inflection

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Suppletion brings markedly different forms into one inflectional paradigm. Their shared grammatical role has to be established even when no regular sound correspondence connects them.
