A morpheme is not identical to a word.
The next language unit is the morpheme.
A morpheme that can't stand alone.
For example, the word fox consists of one morpheme.
Morpheme each classifier contains one phoneme.
An affix is a morpheme that cannot stand alone.
Compound word is a single word that is made up of two(or more) root or free morphemes.
A morpheme which can stand alone to make a word by itself.
There are two kinds of morphemes, free morphemes and bound morphemes.
Content words in nearly all languages contain,and may consist only of root morphemes.
Free morpheme: a morpheme that can stand alone as a word.
In relational synthesis,root words are joined to bound morphemes to show grammatical function.
In linguistics, a morpheme is the smallest grammatical unit in a language.
A logogram, or logograph, is a grapheme which represents a word or a morpheme.
A bound morpheme is a morpheme that requires another morpheme to be added to create meaning.
Traditional definition allows roots to be either free morphemes or bound morphemes.
Bound Morphemes can be attached to both bound morphemes and free morphemes.
In the example, most words have more than one morpheme and some have up to five.
Free morphemes can occur alone and bound morphemes must occur with another morpheme.
A logogram, or logograph,is a single grapheme which represents a word or a morpheme(a meaningful unit of language)….
While derivational morpheme changes the lexical categories of words, inflectional morpheme does not.
A logogram, or logograph, is a grapheme which represents a word or a morpheme(the smallest meaningful unit of language).
According to Crystal(2008), he states that“morphology is the branch of grammar which studies the structure or forms of words,primarily through the use of the morpheme construct” p.
Agglutinative languages tend to have a high rate of affixes or morphemes per word, and to be very regular, in particular with very few irregular verbs.
Grammatically and phonetically they behave like one word(stress onthe first syllable, plural morpheme at the end).
Georgian is an exception; it is highly agglutinative(with up to eight morphemes per word), but it has a significant number of irregular verbs with varying degrees of irregularity.
With rare exceptions, each syllable in Mandarin(corresponding to a single written character) represents a morpheme with an identifiable meaning, even if many of such morphemes are bound.
The most analytic languages consistently have one morpheme per word, while at the other extreme, in polysynthetic languages such as some Native American languages[6] a single inflected verb may contain as much information as an entire English sentence.
English:"He travelled by hovercraft on the sea" is largely isolating, but travelled(although it is possible to say"did travel" instead) and hovercraft each have two morphemes per word, the former being an example of relational synthesis(inflection), and the latter of compounding synthesis(a special case of derivation with another free morpheme instead of a bound one).
