Abstract: How are complex word forms stored and processed in the mental lexicon? According to the dual­ mechanism theory some words are stored and processed holistically, while other word forms are built via regular rule application (Clahsen et al., 1992; Kim et al., 1991; Pinker & Prince, 1988). The single­ mechanism theory, on the other hand, assumes that all word forms are stored and processed in the same way, there is one single route from stored forms to surface word forms (Nakisa et al., 2001; Rumelhart & McClelland, 1986; Skousen, 1992).
