Some of these ideas include:
a. Speech is planned in advance.
b. The lexicon is organized both semantically and
phonologically. That is by meaning, and by the sound of
the words.
c. Morphologically complex words are assembled. Words that
we produce that contain morphemes are put together
during the speech production process. Morphemes are the
smallest units of language that contain meaning. For
example, "ed" on a past tense word.
d. Affixes and functors behave differently from context
words in slips of the tongue. This means the rules about
the ways in which a word can be used are likely stored
with them, which means generally when speech errors are
made, the mistake words maintain their functions and
make grammatical sense.
e. Speech errors reflect rule knowledge. Even in our
mistakes, speech is not nonsensical. The words and
sentences that are produced in speech errors are typically
grammatical, and do not violate the rules of the language
being spoken.
