Assalamualaikum wr.wb.
Today I want to give knowledge about Morphology.
So guys, check this out!
Morphology is the study of words, their structure, and the patterns of word information.
A morpheme is the smallest grammatical piece in a language. It has these three criteria :
1. It holds meaning
2. It cannot be divided into smaller units and retain meaning.
3. It holds similar meaning when moved to other word.
For example :
One morpheme : Child
Two morpheme : Child + ish
Three morpheme : Child + ish + ness
And in morpheme there are two parts.
• Bound Morpheme: a morpheme that cannot stand by itself to form a word;
it must be joined to other morphemes. (Prefixes and suffixes are bound
morphemes. Ex: S)
• Free Morpheme: a morpheme that by itself can function as a word in a
language.(Ex: CAT)
Example for bound morpheme
• Prefixes
Added in to beginning of words.
Un - Happy
Mis - Understand
Non - Sense
Re - Play
Pra - Debut
Sub - Normal
Inter - Nasional
Anti - Fans
• Suffixes
Added in to the end of words
Slow - ly
Care - Ful
Tall - Est
Work - Ing
Book - S
Walk - Ed
Free - Dom
Kind - Ness
Sad - Ness
Maybe that's just an explanation about morphology.
So to find out how understanding you are about the word morphemes, look at the lyrics below, and look for the words free and bound morphemes.
Someone like you
I heard, that you're settled down
That you found a girl and you're, married now
I heard, that your dreams came true
I guess she gave you things
I didn't give to you
Old friend, why are you so shy
Ain't like you to hold back
Or hide from the light
I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited but I
Couldn't stay away I couldn't fight it
I had hoped you'd see my face
And that you be reminded that for me it isn't over
Never mind I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best
For you too, don't forget me
I beg, I'll remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead
Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead yeah
You know how the time flies
Only yesterday it was the time of our lives
We were born and raised
In a summer haze bound by the surprise
Of our glory days
I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited but I
Couldn't stay away I couldn't fight it
I hoped you'd see my face
And that you'd be reminded that for me it isn't over
Never mind I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me I beg, I'll remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead
Nothing compares no worries or cares
Regrets and mistakes their memories made
Who would have known how bittersweet
This would taste
Never mind I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you
Don't forget me I beg, I'll remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead
Never mind I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me I beg, I'll remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead.
Oke gais, sorry for my mistake. Wish this information can give you knowledge and Thank you.
Assalamualaikum wr.wb.
please give more example about preffixes and suffixes!
BalasHapusDalam pruffixes contoh nya
HapusMis-communication
Dalam suffixes
Beauty-ful
Thank you
give me reason why "miscommunication" include preffix?
HapusBecause communication is bound morphems. So you can adding "mis" in the beginning of words.
Hapusoh oke, so is the suffix?
HapusSuffixes is Added in to the end of words for example "beauti, slow" can u added ly and ful. So can be " beautiful and slowly"
Hapusi got it. on point 2 in criteria of morpheme, what does it mean?
Hapusas I said above, morpheme has 3 criteria for writing it.
Hapus1. It holds meaning
2. It cannot be divided into smaller units and retain meaning.
3. It holds similar meaning when moved to other word
yes i know, i ask you point 2, what does it mean?
HapusOh ok, you know mean from point 2 is Free morphemes are units of meaning which cannot be split into anything smaller, as in the following examples
Hapustree, gate, pillow,butter flower, rhinoceros However, the terms 'gate', 'butter' and 'flower' can also exist alongside another free morpheme. The following examples comprise two free morphemes gatepost, buttermilk, sunflower.
you say point 2 is free morpheme, how about bound morpheme, is the same?
HapusBound morphemes are also units of meaning which cannot be split into anything smaller. However, they are different from free morphemes because they cannot exist alone. They must be bound to one or more free morphemes. Almost all prefixes and suffixes are bound morphemes.
Hapuscan you give example?
HapusPrefixes : un-nescesarry, em-power
HapusSuffixes : swimm-ing, fruit-ful
ok thanks for your explanation!
HapusCan you give me the specific explanation about morphology ???
BalasHapusDalam morphology, ada morfem di morfem terdapat 2 cabang yaitu free dan bound dalam free morphemes kata nya hanya berdiri sendiri dan dalam bound katanya bisa di beri imbuhan pada awal ataupun akhiran. Untuk contoh bisa liat di atas
HapusWhy morphology must using affix and suffix ?
BalasHapusAccording to my understanding, we learn important affixes and suffixes because morphology learns about words that can stand alone and can be added with affixes
HapusAre we using morphology in our language in daily activity ?
BalasHapusYes of course, with morphology we can knows about meaning of word
Hapuswhy we must learning about morphology ?
BalasHapusBecause, with morphology terms we can distinguish meaning from the word
Hapuswhat the different about suffixes and preffixes ?
BalasHapusSuffixes imbuhan belakang
HapusPrefixes imbuhan depan
when we can use bound morpheme "s" ???
BalasHapusWe can use morphemes 's' in suffixes when we Added in to the end of words. For example "book+s"
Hapuswhat is the function if we learn about morphology?
BalasHapusby studying morphology, we can know the meaning of the word from the shape of the word. so the word will know the meaning of the word if we know the words we use.
HapusWhen we can use 'ed'?
BalasHapusWe can use 'ed' when Added in to the end of words in suffixes. Thank you
HapusWould you consider 'lol' as a free morpheme? Why? Cite your source to support it while you're at it too
BalasHapusI think no, because "lol" is stands for words, while free is only a word that has meaning but stands alone.
Hapushi yona. is there a rule to add prefix and suffix in a word ?
BalasHapusYes, of course have a rule
HapusLove it 😍 thankyou for your information..
BalasHapusi have a question, Is it in morphology to discuss changes in words
what happens in the community? For example, change the word 'Saja' to 'aja'. Please explain?
I don't know if that in bahasa. Saja maybe language formal, while aja non formal language.
HapusDoes morphology have relate with grammar ?
BalasHapusYes girl
HapusCan you give me one example ?
HapusFor wxample "work" work is free morphemes when you added "ing" ing is bound morphemes. If you added work and ing can be working. You know "working" is present continiou tense.
Hapusrelated to which one morpheme to english skills?
HapusMorphemes related with all english skills
HapusI'm a little bit confused. How's can morpheme related with all English ?
HapusBecause morphology study of word. The word never lost in our life, because reading, writing, speaking, listening as always fair in our life. Thats way morphology related with all English skill
HapusYou said that morphology study to all English skills. Why I should study another linguistics ?
HapusCorrect if morphology covers 4 skills but not enough 1 linguistics to be able to master 4 skills because linguistics with each other has a relationship.
HapusCan you give me another example of three morpheme?
HapusUN-READ-ABLE. this word include three morphemes, unreadable.
HapusSo what makes you interesting to study morphology ?
Hapuswhy im choose morphology?
HapusBecause, i was able to explain the form of language and words and the process of language formation in the form of various morpheme conditions and then knows about the meaning of the word and language.
Thank you for good conversation yona
HapusYour explanation is very long so I am lazy to read it. Please explain briefly so that it is easy to understand
BalasHapusNora, morphology study of word. You know in morphology have morphemes, you know morphems?
HapusI know, but i still confused
HapusOk, morphemes is word and in morphemes have 2 parts. Free and bound morphems. And you can see in my explanation about free and bound
HapusDoes morphology have related with grammar?
BalasHapusYes that right sist
BalasHapustry you explain about morfologi briefly can make me understand.thanyou yona:))
BalasHapusOk yanti. morphology learn about words, in morphology there are morphems. There are 2 morphems, namely free and bound, free, which are independent words. while bound is a word that can be added prefixes and suffixes
Hapusoh ya,oke try you explain about prefixes and suffixes?
HapusPrefixes Added in to beginning of words.
HapusSuffixes added in to the end of words
please,try you give examples of the use of words in everyday life
BalasHapusFor example
HapusUn-Happy
Happi-ness
Please give sentecen of the example
HapusOk .I have a big happiness,but when I'm sick I feel unhappy
HapusThat example from prefixes or suffixes?
HapusOh my God yanti, this is example for prefixes and suffixes. In simple prefixes adding in the beginning of word for example Re-play
HapusAnd sufixess adding in te end of word for example book-s
I mean give me an example in the form of a sentence, an example of a suffixes and prexis
HapusOk, 1. Please replay this video yanti

HapusYour'e welcome yanti. Don't be bored to red my blog
HapusGood... But full of song's lyric. I don't get the information
BalasHapusWhy you don't get information? You know why I'm make lyric, so you can get the point the example morphology in this lyric
HapusWhy you interested with morphology,why not semantics ?
BalasHapusBecause, I'm so falling in love with morphology. With morphology I can different good word and no. So that's way I'm choose morphology, about semantics I'm not interested.
Hapusgive more explain of Prefixes and suffixes and also give example about it?
BalasHapusPrefixes are morphemes that attach to the front of a root/base word.
HapusSuffixes are morphemes that attach to the end of a root/base word, or to other suffixes (see example below)
can you sing a songs Some one like you?
BalasHapusOh really? Of course I can. Tommorow i will sing a song infront of you

BalasHapusHave many lyric contain morphemes, you can find in "flashlight"
HapusThere is nice explanation
BalasHapusThank you so much yaniii
HapusWhat will happen if we don't study morphology?
