NO, because some meanings are completely predictable (such as dioeciously), and many cannot be listed simply because they may never have been used (such as un-Clintonish). These are all words which are not lexical items. 3.1 Taking words apart What’s the difference between words that are lexical items and words that are not? Words that are not lexical items must be complex (composed of two or more morphemes). But lexical-item words can be complex too. Words that are lexical items do not have to be monomorphemic (consisting of just one morpheme). Lexical items that are so complex as to extend over more than one word, namely Idioms. But recognising the existence of lexical items that are polymorphemic (consisting of more than one morpheme) has an important bearing on the relationship between morphemes and meaning, as we shall see. 3.1 Taking words apart What is the basis of their semantic predictability? It must be that these unlisted and unlistable words are composed of identifiable smaller parts (at least two), put together in a systematic fashion so that the meaning of the whole word can be reliably determined. un-Clintonish: un, Clinton, ish In this chapter we will focus on these smaller parts of words, generally called morphemes. 3.1 Taking words apart What is morphology? The area of grammar concerned with the struc ...
