Abstract
This article examines the case of partial antimorphologization (qualitative decrease in the degree of morphological connectivity) of the verbal derivational suffix | -LA | in the Tura language (southeastern Mande), which led to the emergence of two types of linear-syntagmatic dualism in Tura: suffix / weakly autonomous word form and (insignificant) part of the root / weakly autonomous word form (the latter is associated with the existence of such bizarre morphological units as pseudoword forms ). In functional terms, partial antimorphologization in tour represents a case of reparadigmatization by analogy.
