Alternation has been regarded as phonological variation of morphemes. But it should be defined as phonological or graphological variation of morphemes or lexemes or gramemes. /boeb-/ and /boe-/ are alternants of the same lexeme {boeb-} ‘to politely meet (one's elder or superior)’, while {anh-} ‘not to do or not to be’ and {mal-} ‘not to do or not to be’ are different lexemes.
Language consists of six components, i.e. speech sound, writing, lexicon, grammar, meaning, pragmatics. All of them can condition alternations. We have not yet found alternations conditioned by writing, but it does not mean that graphological component cannot condition any alternation as a general rule. Two or more linguistic components may condition an alternation together.
Key words: alternation, morpheme, lexeme, grameme, linguistic component
