This paper purposes to compare morphological and syntactical accounts of a structure-building rule focusing on the examination of several differences between the noun incorporations. We also take up unlisted morphological objects and listed syntactic objects and their blocking effects to know how Compound Noun Incorporation and Classifier Noun Incorporation can be accounted for on morphological and syntactical accounts. We reveal what is a real difference between their own properties, together with restrictions on incorporation. From a different angle, we analyze the arguments and models presented by Baker, Rosen, and Di Sciullo & Williams, to have the properties of noun incorporation. Rosen (1989) claims that Baker's (1988a) account of noun incorporation is incorrect, saying that noun incorporation comes in two types. We handle Rosen's theory in view of the transitivity of the verb and stranding. By studying Di Sciullo & Williams's (1987) argument that morphology should not be seen as part of the lexicon, we argue that they do not show that syntax and morphology are separate components. We also take up Baker's argument regarding head-to-head movement.
