A doctoral dissertation at the College of Education for Humanities at the University of Basra examined "Boundaries and Definitions in Morphological Corpuses: A Study of the Cognitive and Linguistic Structures until the End of the Tenth Century AH."
The dissertation, presented by student Iman Abdul Jassim, aimed to uncover the cognitive and linguistic techniques that contributed to its formulation and crystallization, ensuring that the definition matches the defined. It also aimed to demonstrate the similarities between the approaches morphologists use to depict morphological concepts and those used by scholars of other disciplines.
The study concluded that definitions and boundaries have a clear presence in morphological corpus, both in their representation of linguistic usages and in their application of technical terms. However, they do not occur at a uniform pace or in a single iteration
