2. Morphology is study about a word and how the word
formed, as if the example above the word “drive” and “er” are
called morphemes. Therefore, a process in here is called
morphology. Laurel J. Brinton (2002.59-60).
Geert (2005: 7) Said, “In present-day linguistics, the term
‘morphology’refers to the study of the internal structure of
words, and of the systematic form–meaning correspondences
between words.” The example above is explains about
morphology specially in forming word because it to form new
word. Morphology and syntax study how the word construct but
morphology study about the word
4. Processes in Morphology
Morphology is always analyzes a word and how that word
formed out of smaller meaningful. Morphology is component of
mental grammar and deal with a word too, it aim that process
of morphology by combining one morph with the other,
sometime it makes new word, part of speech or meaning, these
are five processes. Wedrana Mihalicek et al (2011: 148;149).
Affix, Prefix, Suffix, Compounding, Reduplication,
Alternation, Suppletion,
5. The possessive 's in English is an instructive example,
because we can contrast its behavior with that of the
plural s. These two morphemes are pronounced in exactly
the same variable way, dependent on the sounds that
precede them:
Noun Noun + s (plural)
Noun + s
(possessive)
Pronunciation
(both)
thrush thrushes thrush's iz
toy toys toy's z
block blocks block's s
