Stuff to Add

edit

I tried to flesh out the article a bit. We could use a clear definition at the top (maybe I'll use mine from Feature if nobody has a better one). The Semantics section still could use more information. Also, it would be nice if we could get some history on the concept (which of these meanings came first? who coined the term? etc.). Feel free to add stuff, people! :) Finally, I don't think my examples are ideal. If anyone thinks of better ones, just change them. Indeterminate (talk) 04:31, 25 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Typed Feature Structures are central in HPSG, and I believe a similar conceptualization in used in LFG. Also, the MP literature discusses features extensively. I may come back and add some discussion of these topics if no one else objects. This would go in 'in morphology' section (which I'd like to change to 'in morphosyntax').J Crow (talk) 06:46, 5 September 2010 (UTC)Reply
