Abstract

Morphology is science that deals with formation of words, types of words and their forms. Morpheme is smallest language unit or smallest language unit or smallest part of word which has a meaning. Morphemes are divided base on their meaning to lexical and grammatical. Lexical morphemes are non-linguistic wearers of word’s meaning. They are divided into those of the root and derivative ones. Morphemes of the root wear basic lexical meaning. It is invariable. This is actually root of word which reflects its origin and similarity according to meaning within the family of words. The remaining lexical morphemes are there to derivate new words from rooted morpheme, and this is why they are named derivative morphemes.
