In chapter 1 this book introduced the idea
that some complex words have meaning that
are so predictable that they do not have to be
listed in dictionary.
But , in this chapter
we will focus on         Example:
variety; words that do    This pianist performs in
not have to be listed    the local hall every week.
                          Mary told us that pianist
, because they are       performed in the local hall
marely grammatically     every week.
and which itself may      The performance last
                         week was particularly
or may not be listed.    impressive.
Depending on
wheater its meaning is
predictable or not.
There are words that have to be
          listed in dictionary and words that
                          do not



Example :
   Performs, performed    - perform
   Pianists               - pianist
There are two reason why a word from
such as pianists does not have to be listed:


  In English is a noun that can be counted, it
 will have a plural form.
  Unless otherwise specified , that the plural
 form of any countable noun will be formed by
 adding suffix-s to the singular form.
Unless otherwise specified is a noun in plural
     form without adding “s” or suffix-s



    Example:
     Child          - Children
     Tooth          - teeth
     Woman          - Women
     Man            - Men, etc
Most countable
noun in English
have two word     Inflectionally for
forms :           any noun lexeme
                  X, there are two
   Singular and   grammatical words:
   Plural           Singular of X
                    Plural of X
There are also countable nouns
that express their plural with no
          suffix at all.
The singular and plural
    distinction is the only
grammatical distinction that is
  expressed morphology in
         English noun.
