A morpheme is the smallest unit of or the smallest piece of a word that contributes meaning to a word. Example: The word ‘management’ has 2 morphemes in it manage-ment. Some words have just one morpheme like ‘destined’. All morphemes are either free or bound.…

Whether or not a word is divided on all available morphemes is debatable. Some morphologists decompose the words completely as it was formed etymologically while others only decompose what there is evidence to decompose in the modern use of the word.…
The extent of something with respect to some standard. A measurement taken from a body or from an object must have a corresponding number or units. Unit involves three fundamental concepts – length, mass and time—and that all the rest can be derived from this showing the unity of physics.…

While words are generally accepted as being (with clitics) the smallest units of syntax, it is clear that in most (if not all) languages, words can be related to other words by rules (grammars). For example, English speakers recognize that the words dog and dogs are closely related — differentiated only by the plurality morpheme "-s," which is only found bound to nouns, and is never separate. Speakers of English (a fusional language) recognize these relations from their tacit knowledge of the rules of word formation in English. They infer intuitively that dog is to dogs as cat is to cats; similarly, dog is to dog catcher as dish is to dishwasher (in one sense). The rules understood by the speaker reflect specific patterns (or regularities) in the way words are formed from smaller units and…
We have two kinds of morphemes in English. The first one is the free morphemes. They can stand alone as meaningful words; some examples of them are: love, tree, house, cat, dog, fly, butter, cup, etc. We can define these morphemes as they are. The second kind of morphemes is…
Similarly, there are ‘bound’ morphemes that, like to the most purely grammatical markers, representing such concepts as ‘tense’, ‘number’, ‘gender’, and ‘case’.…
Every language is in constant need for new words. This is mainly because of the development in the technological field. New product are coming on the market and all of them need namws by which to be called. Because of these new inventions and changes, a language needs to borrow, derive or otherwise coin new words simply because new things need names. The formation of words does not just appear like that out of the blue, but rather, there are several methods that are used to create new words.…
