Michael Halliday on Rank - Dictionary of Arguments
Lyons I 210 Rank/Linguistics/Terminology/Halliday/Lyons: e. g. difference of sentences, subsets, syntagms, words and morphemes. >Sentences, >Partial clauses, >Words, >Morphemes. Other authors: Pike: level, Lamb: stratum (layer). Higher-ranking units consist of lower-ranking units. 5 Rank: belongs to the surface structure. >Surface structure I 211 Grammar: however, this does not mean that it must be built in such a way that there must be rules for production at every level. It is not mandatory that each sentence is to be broken down into units of one rank or another without remainder. >Grammar. For example: English: e.g. blue-eyed, red-haired: there is no unit "eyed" or "haired". As a result, higher-level units are not necessarily composed of lower-level units. Grammar/Lexicon/Lyons: new: we no longer keep in mind that the vocabulary consists of a certain number of words listed in the lexicon, which are put together into sentences with the help of rules to be applied to the word classes. >Lexicon, >Vocabulary, >J.
