The document discusses morphosyntax, which is the study of grammatical categories or properties that have both morphological and syntactic characteristics. Some examples of morphosyntactic categories include number, tense, person, and voice. Morphology is the study of word structure and classification, while lexicology is the study of vocabulary. A morpheme is the smallest meaningful linguistic unit, and can be free-standing or bound within words. Morphemes are further classified by their position and function, such as prefixes, suffixes, and infixes.

Mophosyntax - Second class handout
This document provides an overview of morphosyntax, which is the study of morphology and syntax. It discusses how words are formed through processes like affixation, conversion, and compounding. Morphemes, the smallest units of meaning, are explained as free or bound. Inflectional morphology and allomorphy are also covered. Exercises are provided to have students identify morphemes, their functions, and forms of the same lexeme.
General linguistics
General linguistics is the scientific study of human language in all its forms without restrictions. It supplies the concepts and categories used to analyze specific languages. General linguistics studies the theoretical bases of language description and the methods used to investigate linguistic phenomena. It also examines the connections between linguistics and other fields like logic, psychology, and the social influences on a language's development and structure. One feature is a dual approach using both structural analysis of a language's systems and sociolinguistic analysis of social influences.
Introduction to Morphology
Morphology is the study of word structure and formation. It analyzes the morphemic structure of words. A morpheme is the smallest unit of meaning, and words can consist of free morphemes that can stand alone or bound morphemes that cannot. There are two main types of bound morphemes: derivational morphemes that change a word's meaning or class, and inflectional morphemes that change grammatical information without altering meaning. Words are formed through processes like affixation, compounding, reduplication, blending, and others. Understanding morphology helps with reading comprehension and vocabulary development.
How children learn language
1. The document discusses the development of children's speech production and comprehension from babbling to first words to telegraphic speech to rule formation. It explains that speech comprehension precedes production and the relationship between thought, comprehension, and production.
2. It describes characteristics of parentese/baby talk that aid language learning like exaggerated intonation and simplified grammar and vocabulary. Imitation, rule learning, and correction play roles in acquisition.
3. Memory and logic also facilitate language learning as children form word-object associations through memory and use inductive and deductive reasoning. Abstract words are learned later through experience and metaphor.
Task based syllabus
This document discusses task-based syllabus design. It defines a task-based syllabus as constructing lessons with various tasks as the basic building blocks, focusing on using the target language in real-world contexts rather than drilling isolated grammar items. It outlines aspects of task-based syllabus design like including authentic language data, providing information, and allowing practice. It also describes types of tasks and notes the advantages of task-based syllabi in goals, activities, and roles while the disadvantages include lack of guidance on combining grammar and skills.
Introduction English Morphology
This document provides an overview of English morphology. It defines morphology as the study of word structure and formation. Key concepts discussed include:
- Morphemes as the minimal units of meaning that make up words. Morphemes can be free or bound.
- Types of bound morphemes including derivational and inflectional affixes.
- Morphs as the phonetic realization of morphemes. Allomorphs are variant forms of morphemes that do not change meaning.
- Examples are provided to illustrate different types of morphemes, morphs, and allomorphs in English words.
Discourse
Discourse analysis examines how sentences form coherent units like paragraphs and conversations. Cohesion refers to grammatical and lexical relationships between discourse elements, created through devices like reference, substitution, ellipsis, and conjunction. However, coherence depends on how people interpret a discourse based on their background knowledge and expectations. While cohesive devices link utterances, coherence involves constructing a meaningful interpretation in line with one's experience of the world.
Morphosyntactic analysis
The document analyzes the differences in morphology, syntax, and other linguistic features between a speech and a monologue. The speech uses more formal language, complex sentences, and nominalizations to convey an informative and critical tone. In contrast, the monologue incorporates informal language, a mixture of simple and complex sentences, and conditionals to communicate an urgent and candid tone. It is shorter in length with less varied vocabulary compared to the longer and more linguistically diverse speech.

Prague school slides
The Prague School was an influential group of linguists, philosophers and literary critics active from 1928-1939 in Prague, Czechoslovakia. Key figures included Roman Jakobson, Nikolai Trubetzkoy, and Vilem Mathernis. The School developed methods of structuralist literary analysis and the theory of standard language. They combined structuralism, which examines how components relate within a system, with functionalism, which looks at how components fulfill specific functions. The School made contributions to phonology, stylistics, and developed concepts like functional sentence perspective.
12 morphophonemics
Morphophonemics is the study of variations in the form of morphemes due to phonetic factors or sound changes. When morphemes are combined, their pronunciation can change based on morphological and phonological rules. For example, in English the plural morpheme is realized as /-s/, /-z/, or /-əz/ depending on the final sound of the preceding word. These varying forms are called allomorphs and are conditioned by phonological rules at morpheme boundaries.
Lexical cohesion
This document discusses lexical cohesion and its importance in computational text understanding. It defines lexical cohesion as the cohesive effect achieved through the selection of related vocabulary within a text. There are several ways lexical cohesion is created, including repetition, synonymy, collocation, and lexical chains of successively related words on the same topic. Lexical cohesion helps determine context and discourse structure, thus aiding systems in resolving ambiguity and gaining a holistic understanding of a text's overall meaning.
The Linguistics of Second Language Acquisition
This document provides an overview of different linguistic approaches to second language acquisition (SLA) that have been influential. It begins with early approaches like contrastive analysis, error analysis, and the monitor model. It then discusses more internal approaches focused on learners' creative construction of language, including interlanguage, morpheme order studies, and universal grammar. Finally, it covers functional approaches to SLA involving an external focus on the communicative functions of language, such as systemic linguistics, functional typology, function-to-form mapping, and information organization. The document analyzes each approach and discusses their problems and contributions to the field of SLA.
Stylistics
Stylistics is the study of style in texts. It examines an author's distinctive use of features like vocabulary, grammar, figures of speech and their effects. Foregrounding refers to linguistic features that are made prominent in a text to achieve special effects. It relates to deviation from ordinary language norms. Foregrounding devices attract attention and influence a reader's interpretation through what is emphasized versus backgrounded.
Inflection in Morphology (Linguistics)
This slide explains Inflectional morphology which is the study of the processes (such as affixation and vowel change) that distinguish the forms of words in certain grammatical categories.

Lecture 2 sentence structure constituents
The document summarizes key concepts from a lecture on sentence structure and constituents. It defines what a sentence and constituent are, and explains that sentences can be broken down into constituents like phrases. Constituents are groupings of words centered around a head word. Phrases are named after their head words, and can be further divided into intermediate and ultimate constituents in a hierarchical structure. The document also discusses tests for identifying constituents and provides examples of applying these concepts.

Words and lexemes ppt
The document defines key linguistic terms:
- A word is the smallest unit that can stand alone when pronounced, consisting of either a single morpheme like "rock" or multiple morphemes like "rocks".
- A lexeme is a set of forms taken by a single word, like "run", "runs", "ran", and "running" which are all forms of the lexeme "RUN".
- A morpheme is the smallest unit of meaning, for example "cat" and "-s" in "cats" where "cat" means the animal and "-s" indicates plural.
semantics and pragmatics (1)
This document provides an overview of semantics and pragmatics, discussing their similarities and differences. Both are subfields of linguistics that deal with meaning, but semantics focuses on literal word and sentence meanings, while pragmatics examines how context contributes to meaning. Key differences include pragmatics considering social and situational contexts versus just text for semantics. Theories like Grice's implicature and Austin's sense and force further separated the fields by highlighting how pragmatics examines implied versus literal meanings and how utterances can perform actions.
ENGLISH SYNTAX
The document provides an overview of English syntax and linguistic phenomena. It discusses the basic sentence structures and core patterns in English, including noun phrases, verbs, tense, aspect, modality, and subcategorization. It also covers topics like anaphora, coordination, distribution, and the functions of arguments and predicates.
Allophone presentation
This document discusses phonology and the relationship between phonemes and allophones. It defines phonemes as the smallest units of sound that distinguish meaning, while allophones are predictable variants of phonemes that are conditioned by their context. Phonemes group sets of similar-sounding allophones. For example, [p] and [ph] in English are allophones of the same /p/ phoneme because they occur in complementary distribution and can be substituted without changing a word's meaning. Allophones are phonetic realizations of phonemes that follow language-specific rules.
Applied linguistic: Contrastive Analysis
This document discusses contrastive analysis as a tool for comparing two languages to identify similarities and differences. It can be used to predict difficulties for language learners by examining differences between their first language (L1) and the target second language (L2). The document outlines the basic steps of contrastive analysis, including describing the phonemic inventories and comparing sounds, syntax, and other linguistic features between L1 and L2. Contrastive analysis was an early and influential theory for predicting language learning difficulties but has limitations and has been supplemented by other approaches.
Morphology # Productivity in Word-Formation
This document discusses word formation processes and productivity in morphology. It defines productivity as the generality of a word formation process, considering both its degree of application to potential word bases and how it may change over time. Productivity exists on a spectrum from fully productive to semi-productive to unproductive. Semi-productive processes like suffixation with -ist or -ant are constrained by factors like the origin of the base word. Creativity in word formation can be rule-governed, following regular morphological patterns, or rule-bending, where new words are formed idiomatically without conscious rules.
Discourse analysis and grammar
This document discusses various cohesive devices in language including reference, substitution, and ellipsis. It defines reference as the relationship between linguistic expressions. There are three main types of reference: personal, demonstrative, and comparative. Substitution replaces words to avoid repetition, including nominal, verbal, and clausal substitution. Ellipsis omits elements assumed to be obvious from context. Conjunctions provide links between clauses and demonstrate relationships between different parts of a text. The document provides many examples to illustrate these cohesive devices.
Morphological productivity
This document discusses the concept of morphological productivity. It defines productivity as the ability of an affix or word formation rule to coin new words. Productivity can vary, with some affixes being highly productive and able to generate many new words, while others are unproductive. Productivity is constrained by both pragmatic factors like trends and structural factors like phonological or morphological restrictions on affixes. Measuring the productivity of an affix involves counting how many new words it has formed. Blocking also limits productivity, where an existing word blocks the formation of a similar derived word.
Introduction to English for Specific Purposes
This is a brief discussion of the background of English for Specific Purposes for the sake of the learners of English as a second language.
Some Summary of Morphology
This document discusses words, sentences, and dictionaries. It makes several key points:
- Words can be the basic building blocks of language and sentences, but a sentence does not always need multiple words and can consist of a single word command.
- There is a distinction between a word as a type and its occurrences as tokens. The same word can appear as different tokens in a sentence.
- Not all words have unpredictable meanings that need to be defined in a dictionary. Some words have predictable meanings based on their sounds.
- Idioms and phrases can have meanings that are unpredictable from the individual words. Larger linguistic units like proverbs can also have non-literal meanings.
- Not
Applied linguistics presentation
The document discusses applied linguistics and interdisciplines. It defines applied linguistics as using linguistic theories and methods to solve language problems in other fields. The history of applied linguistics is discussed, along with its aims to study language learning and teaching and solve related problems. Interdisciplines that applied linguistics interacts with are sociolinguistics, psycholinguistics, neurolinguistics, and various applied areas like education, speech therapy, computing, and international relations.
Morphology ppt for blackboard
This document defines morphology as the branch of linguistics that studies the structure of words. It discusses what constitutes a word and describes morphemes as the smallest meaningful elements that make up words. There are two main types of morphemes: free morphemes that can stand alone as words, and bound morphemes that must be attached to other morphemes. The document also describes the components of words, such as roots, affixes, bases, and the four types of affixes: prefix, suffix, infix, and circumfix. Finally, it outlines the two main fields in morphology: inflectional morphology, which studies how words vary grammatically, and derivational morphology, which studies how words
Morphology
This document discusses morphology, which is the study of word structure and formation. It defines key terms like morpheme, affixation, prefix, suffix, root words, compound words, blending, clipping, and reduplication. It provides examples to illustrate different morphological processes involved in word formation, including affixation, compounding, derivation, and borrowing words from other languages. The key takeaway is that morphology examines how meanings of words are represented and modified through the combination and alteration of morphemes.

Basics of Morphology.pptx
Morphology is the study of how words are formed and related through the combination of morphemes, the smallest meaningful units of language. There are two types of morphemes - bound, which cannot stand alone, and free, which can. A base, root, or stem refers to the core form of a word that affixes like prefixes and suffixes can be added to in order to derive new words or forms.
Phonology
Phonology is the study of how sounds are organized and used in languages. It examines an inventory of sounds and rules for how they interact, and analyzes sound patterns to determine which sounds are significant for a language. Phonetics studies speech sound production, while phonology analyzes sound patterns and interpretations in a particular language. A phoneme is the smallest meaningful sound unit that distinguishes word meanings. Generative phonology assigns phonetic representations to utterances based on a speaker's internal grammar. Non-linear models like autosegmental and metrical phonology treat representations as multi-dimensional. Lexical phonology accounts for interactions of morphology and phonology in word formation through ordered levels.

Morphology
Morphology is the study of words and how they are formed from smaller units called morphemes. Morphemes are the smallest units of meaning in language and can be free or bound. Free morphemes, like "tree", can stand alone as words, while bound morphemes, like the "-s" in "trees", must be attached to other morphemes and cannot stand alone. Bound morphemes that carry grammatical meaning, like number or tense, are called inflectional affixes. In English, these are always suffixes added to the end of words. Morphology examines both the internal structure of words and how words combine to form larger linguistic units.
chapter 1.What is Morphology? (Morphology (Linguistics)
This document defines morphology as the study of word formation, including how new words are created and how word forms vary based on usage. It discusses key linguistic concepts like morphemes, words, lexemes, word tokens and types. Morphology allows for new lexemes to be formed from old ones through processes that change parts of speech or add meaning. It also allows for inflectional changes to word forms to fit grammatical contexts like number, tense and person without creating new lexemes. The chapter establishes these concepts and distinguishes between derivational and inflectional word formation.
Ppt ibuk
There are four main types of grammar:
1. Generative/theoretical grammar which looks at the entire linguistic system from sounds to meaning.
2. Descriptive grammar which describes the structure of a language from its smallest units.
3. Pedagogical grammar which is used by students and teachers.
4. Perspective grammar which looks at how people normally speak a language.
Morphology
Morphology is the study of the smallest units of language called morphemes. It examines word formation through processes like inflection, derivation, and compounding. Morphemes can be free or bound, and may or may not have meaning. They undergo phonological variations and combinations to form words. Morphology analyzes the internal structure, forms, and relationships between morphemes in a language from both synchronous and diachronic perspectives.
Components of Language
Phonology is the study of the sound patterns of language, including how speech sounds are used to convey meaning. It looks at various aspects of sounds and sound combinations, including what sounds can go together to form syllables and differences between languages. Morphology is the study of words, their internal structure, and how new words are formed. It analyzes morphemes, the smallest units of meaning, including free and bound morphemes. Semantics is the study of meaning, including both the literal meaning of words and phrases as well as their connotative meanings. Syntax refers to the patterns and order of words within sentences to show relationships of meaning.
Morphology & Morpheme
This document defines and discusses morphology and morphemes. It begins by defining morphology as the study of word formation and the structure of words. Words are made up of morphemes, which are the smallest meaningful units in a word. Morphemes can be either free or bound. Bound morphemes cannot stand alone as words on their own, such as prefixes and suffixes, while free morphemes can stand alone. The document then discusses types of morphemes such as derivational versus inflectional morphemes and lexical versus functional morphemes. It provides examples to illustrate these concepts and differences. In the end, it lists references used in preparing the material.

Morphology is the study of word forms and the rules for word formation. It examines the internal structure of words and how parts of words, called morphemes, combine to form new words. There are two main types of morphemes - bound morphemes like prefixes and suffixes that must attach to other morphemes, and free morphemes that can stand alone as words. Studying morphology helps us understand where words come from, how new words are formed, and the mental lexicon of words we know. It also provides insight into how dictionaries are structured.
Morphemes chapter 4
This document discusses morphemes and morphology. It begins by defining key terms like morpheme, morph, and allomorph. A morpheme is the smallest meaningful unit in a word, a morph is its actual form, and allomorphs are variant pronunciations of the same morpheme. There are two types of morphs: free forms that can stand alone as words, and bound forms that must be attached to other morphemes. Morphemes are also classified as lexical, carrying lexical meaning, or grammatical, specifying relationships. The document outlines characteristics of derivational and inflectional morphemes. It concludes by noting morphological differences among languages.
Morpheme
This document defines and provides examples of different types of morphemes:
1. A morpheme is the smallest meaningful unit in a language that cannot be further divided. Morphemes can be words or parts of words.
2. Morphemes are classified as free or bound. Free morphemes can stand alone as words, while bound morphemes must be combined with other morphemes.
3. There are two types of free morphemes - lexical morphemes which provide the main meaning, and functional morphemes which serve a grammatical purpose. Bound morphemes include affixes like prefixes and suffixes.
Introduction of Morphology
This document discusses morphology, which is the study of word structure and formation. It defines key terms like morpheme, morph, and allomorph. A morpheme is the smallest unit of meaning, and words can be made up of one or more morphemes. A morph is the phonetic representation of a morpheme. An allomorph is a variant form of a morpheme that does not change its meaning. There are different types of morphemes, including free morphemes that can stand alone as words, and bound morphemes like prefixes and suffixes that must be attached to other morphemes. Morphology examines how morphemes combine and the patterns of word formation.
#Morphology#
Morphology is the study of word structures and formation, focusing on morphemes. A morpheme is the smallest meaningful linguistic unit, such as prefixes, suffixes, and root words. There are two types of morphemes: free morphemes, which can stand alone as words, like nouns and verbs, and bound morphemes, or affixes, which must be attached to other morphemes. Bound morphemes include inflectional morphemes, which indicate grammatical functions without changing word class, and derivational morphemes, which sometimes change the word's part of speech. Morphology examines the rules of word formation in a given language.
The early theroy of chomsky
The document discusses Noam Chomsky's early work developing transformational grammar. It explains that phrase structure rules break sentences down into constituent parts like noun phrases and verb phrases. Chomsky used these rules to generate the nonsense sentence "Colorless green ideas sleep furiously" to show they can create syntactically correct but semantically incorrect sentences. It then discusses how transformational grammar introduced the concepts of deep structure and surface structure, with deep structure representing core semantic relations and surface structure following phonological form, connected by transformations. Generative grammar aims to predict which word combinations form grammatical sentences.

English Vowels sounds
Vowels are sounds produced with an open vocal tract, while consonants restrict or stop airflow. In English phonology, vowels are classified based on five factors: tongue position (front, central, back), height (high, mid, low), lip shape (rounded, spread, neutral), closeness (close, half-close, half-open, open), and length (long/tense, short/lax). Syllables can be open, ending in a vowel, or closed, ending in a consonant. Long vowels can occur in both open and closed syllables, while short vowels only occur in closed syllables.
English Diphthong
This document discusses diphthongs in English phonology. It defines a diphthong as a single sound produced from two vowels in sequence, with one vowel being dominant. Diphthongs are represented by two letters, with the first showing the starting point and second the direction of movement from one vowel position to another. There are two types of diphthongs: closing diphthongs where the position moves to close vowels, and centering diphthongs where the position moves to center vowels. The first vowel is longer in duration and receives more stress.
English Consonants
This document defines consonants and describes their classification in English phonology. It defines consonants as speech sounds involving stricture or closure in the vocal tract. Consonants are classified based on four features: 1) whether the vocal cords vibrate (voiced vs voiceless), 2) whether the velum is lowered (nasal) or raised (oral), 3) place of articulation where stricture occurs, and 4) manner of articulation regarding amount of stricture and air flow. It provides charts of the place and manner of articulation for English consonant phonemes such as plosives, nasals, fricatives, affricates, laterals and glides.

Introduction to morphosyntax
- 2. # Morphosyntax The study of grammatical categories or properties for whose definition criteria of morphology and syntax both apply. Morphosyntax Syntax Morpho logy
- 3. # Morphosyntax • The study of grammatical categories or linguistic units that have both morphological and syntactic properties. • The set of rules that govern linguistic units whose properties are definable by both morphological and syntactic criteria. • The number category in Nouns, for example, may be expressed morphologically (through inflectional endings) and syntactically (through agreement with verb). • Tense, person, and voice are examples of other morphosyntactic categories
- 4. # Morphology VS Lexicology Morphology is the branch of linguistics that study the structure of words in a particular language and their classification • Morpheme : Smallest meaningful unit of grammar Lexicology is the study of vocabulary of a language • lexeme : The smallest unit in the meaning system of a language that can be distinguished from other similar unit
- 5. # Morpheme A short segment of language that meets three criteria: It is a word or part of a word that has meaning. It cannot be divided into smaller meaningful parts without violation of it’s meaning or without meaningless remainders. It recurs in differing verbal environment with a relatively stable meaning.
- 6. # Classification of Morpheme • A morpheme that can be uttered alone with meaning (stand by itself) • e.g. eat, view, play, etc Free Morpheme: • A morpheme that cannot be uttered with meaning. It is always annexed to one or other morphemes to form a word. • e.g. re-, -er, un-, -ly, etc Bound Morpheme: • A Part of a word that has principal meaning. Most of the bases are free morpheme but some are bound. • e.g. denial, lovable, etc Base Morpheme;
- 7. # A base is a linguistic form that meets one or more of these requirements; It can occur as an immediate constituent of a word whose only other immediate constituent is a prefix or suffix It is an allomorph of a morpheme which has another allomorph that is a free form It is a borrowing from another language in which it is free form of a base Base
- 8. # Affix • Bound morpheme that occurs before, within, or after a base. • There are three kinds of Affix; • Those bound morphemes that occurs before a base • e.g. import, pre-schoolPrefix • Bound morphemes that has been inserted within a word. • e.g. –ee- geese (replacive allomorphs)Infix • Bound morphemes that occur after a base • e.g. failure, nails, dreamed, etcSuffix
