Morphology


Definitions

Morphology is the classification, the derivation, and the various modifications of words.
Morphology is also known as Etymology.

Classes of Words

A word can be defined as a sign of an idea. Words have both spoken and written forms. Based on their meaning and use, words are divided into eight classes that are called the Parts of Speech.  Words in five of these eight classes each display several different forms depending on how the word is being used.

Note

Words can also be divided:

  • according to their sounds in pronunciation into monosyllable, disyllables, trisyllables and polysyllables.
  • according to their significant parts into primitive words, derivative words, and compound words.
