Message 2: Fixed Order

Subject: Fixed Order

In a 1991 piece for ADFL, Bill Van Patten gave a list of findings of 
interest to language teachers. The article, "SLA Research and FL Teaching,"
appeared in two parts. One of the summary findings was this:
"#2:Certain grammatical morphemes tend to emerge in a fixed order."

A question came up in class yesterday regarding the current validity of
that statement. The difference of opinion was "yes" and "no." Van Patten
cited as sources himself, Andersen, Ellis, Gass and Selinker.

Can someone assist me off-list with further info or an update on the current
thinking on this point?
Thanks!
