CONCLUSION
Morphemes are the smallest units of meaning in language. They are usually classified as free morphemes that can occur as separate words or as linked morphemes that cannot stand as single words. Most words in English are made up of a single free morpheme. For example, each word in the following sentence is a separate morpheme: "I have to go now, but you can stay." In other words, none of the nine words in this sentence can be broken down into smaller meaningful parts. Etymology From French, phoneme-like, from Greek "shape, shape". Examples and observations A prefix can be a morpheme: "What does pre-boarding mean? Do you board before boarding?" (George Carlin). Individual words can be morphemes: "They want to put you in a box, but nobody's in a box. You're not in a box." - John Turturro Agreeable word forms can be morphemes: "They want to put you in a box, but nobody's in a box. You're not in a box." - John Turturro Morphs and allomorphs "A word can be analyzed as consisting of one morpheme (sad) or two or more morphemes (unhappy; compare lucky, lucky, unlucky), each morpheme usually representing a separate meaning. When a morpheme is represented by a particle, it will be a fragment. morpheme. If a morpheme can be represented by more than one morpheme, then morphemes are allomorphs of one morpheme: in- (crazy), il- (unreadable), im- (possible not), ir- (irregular) prefixes. allomorphs of the same negative morpheme". Morphemes as meaningful sequences of sounds "A word cannot be divided into morphemes by sounding out its syllables. Some morphemes, such as apple, have more than one syllable, while others, such as -s, have less than a syllable. A morpheme is a form (a sequence of sounds). Knowing the early history or etymology of a word divides it into morphemes. can be useful in being, but the decisive factor is the form-meaning link. "However, a morpheme can have more than one pronunciation or spelling. For example, a simple noun plural ending has two spellings (-s and -es) and three pronunciations (s sound like back, z sound). As in bags and collection, vowels and z sound. Similarly, when the -ate morpheme is followed by -ion (as in activate-ion), the t sound of -ate combines with the i of -ion. 'sh' (so we spell "activashun" Such allomorphic variation is characteristic of the morphemes of English, although the spelling does not represent it." Grammar tags "Morphemes, in addition to serving as a resource for creating vocabulary, give words grammatical labels, help us identify the parts of speech of words in sentences we hear or read based on their form. For example, in a sentence, morphemes provide grammatical labels to words , the plural morpheme {-s} helps identify morphemes, tags, and words as nouns; the ending {-ical} emphasizes and modifies the adjectival relationship between the grammatical and the following noun, tag. Language acquisition "English-speaking children typically begin to produce two-morpheme words around the age of three, and during that year the rate at which they use affixes is rapid and impressive. This, as Roger Brown has shown, is what children starting time. possessives ("Adam's ball"), plurals ("dogs"), present progressive verbs ("I walk"), third person singular present tense verbs ("he walks") and past participles. verbs although not always completely correct ('I brunged it here') Note that all these new morphemes are inflections. tends to continue learning directly.
