What is it about?
This article pushes for a split model for two different kinds of representation of linguistic structure--derivational and representational. By using category theory, this article marshals insights from psycholinguistic findings to buttress the mathematical model proposed.

Why is it important?
Derivational and representational frameworks in theoretical linguistics have long been thought to be divergent. The current article shows a way of integrating their somewhat distinct fit to grammars with respect to the representation of linguistic structure. This can have consequences for research in theoretical linguistics and psycholinguistics.
Perspectives
The current theoretical landscape in linguistics is fragmented. Against this background, the present article presents a proposal to show the underlying commonalities and patterns in representations of linguistic structure.
