Abstract

Morphology is the branch of linguistics that studies the structure and formation of words. It investigates the internal structure of words and how they are composed of morphemes, the smallest units of meaning. This field encompasses inflectional morphology, which deals with the grammatical variations of words, and derivational morphology, which focuses on how new words are formed by adding prefixes, suffixes, or other morphemes. Morphological analysis contributes to understanding language development, word formation processes, and the relationship between words. This abstract highlights the significance of morphology in linguistics and its implications for language acquisition, cognitive processing, and the evolution of languages over time.
