7. 1. ROOT, AFFIX 2. BASE 3. AFFIX: 1. prefix, suffix, infixes & circumfixes II. Affixation

8. Roots & affixes Root: Serves as a building block for other words (usually, but not always a free morpheme) Affix: Bound morphemes added to the root.

9. Affixation Prefix: An affix that is attached to the _________ of a base,  Ex. re-play. Suffix: An affix that is attached to the _________ of a base.  Ex. kind-ness.

10. Affixation Infix: An affix that occur a base Infix: An affix that occur _________a base  Ex:  Ex: Tagalog: write = sulat / written = sinulat.  The infix -in- changes the verb from present to past tense. Circumfixes: Where you (sometimes surrounding the root). Circumfixes: Where you _________ ___________(sometimes surrounding the root).  Ex: Arabic: Book = kitab / Wrote = kataba / has been written= kutib  Ex: Hebrew

11. Hebrew and Affixes The Ancient Hebrew Lexicon of the Bible By Jeff A. Benner

12. Hebrew and Affixes הִמְטִיר (hee-teer) This is the verb מטר (M.Th.R) meaning to "rain." The structure of the verb also identifies the verb tense as perfect – he rained. The prefix ה (hee) along with the י (ee) infix, identifies the verb as a hiphil (causative) verb – he made rain, or he caused to rain. But, the preceding word לא negates this verb – he did not cause it to rain. www.ancient-hebrew.org/emagazine/046.doc

32. 1. INFLECTION 2. INFLECTIONS IN ENGLISH VI. Inflection

33. Inflection The modification of a word’s form to __________the ____________ ________to which it belongs  Ex:

34. T HE 9 E NGLISH I NFLECTIONAL M ORPHEMES Nouns –splural –’spossessive Verbs –sthird person singular present –edpast tense –en past participle –ingprogressive Adjectives –ercomparative –estsuperlative -enpast participle

35. Inflection vs. derivation

36. Derivation vs. Inflection (1) It changes the __________and /or the __________of meaning of the word, so it is said to create __________. Ex: It does not change either the ______ __________or the ________ __________foun d in the word. Ex:

37. Derivation vs. Inflection (2) AAAA derivational affix must combine with the base __________an inflectional affix. e.g. neighbour (base) + hood (DA) + s (IA) = neighbourhoods The following combination is unacceptable: neighbour (base) + s (IA) + hood (DA) = *neighbourshood

38. Derivation vs. Inflection (3) AAAAn inflectional affix in more __________than a derivational affix. EX: the inflectional suffix –s can combine with virtually any noun to form a plural noun. On the other hand, the derivational suffix –ant can combine only with Latinate bases.

52. Is this a blend?

53. Case Study: Blends or Compounds ‘Wild-haired revolutionaries like Che Guevara have been replaced by clean-cut metrosexual icons like soccer star David Beckham and musician Ricky Martin.’ (cbsnews.com, 25th November 2003). ‘No botox for the Retrosexual. No $1,000 haircuts. The retrosexual man eats red meat heartily and at times kills it himself.’ (The Washington Dispatch, 2nd May 2004). Another recent coinage borne out of the current preoccupation with male stereotyping is the noun and adjective technosexual. (Macmillan Online, January 2005).

60. Let’s invent words! Invent words that don’t already exist in English, and then define the process that was used to creat this word.

61. Intialism or Acronym? Initialism: An abbreviation created by ________ __ __________ (e.g. PEI or USA) as letters rather than a word. Acronym: A word that is forms by ________ ____________of some or all the words in a phrase or title and __________ __________ (e.g. NATO for North Atlantic Treaty Organization)   

62. IX. Other Morphological Phenomena

63. Other Morphological Phenomena related to inflection Internal change  Process that substitutes one non-morphemic segment for another to mark grammatical contrast.  Different than infixing …  Examples:

64. Other Morphological Phenomena related to inflection Suppletion  Replaces a morpheme with an entirely different morpheme in order to indicate a grammatical contrast.  Ex:    

65. Morphophonemics

66. “Pronunciation can be sensitive to __________factors” Example: English Plural  Allomorphs pronounced: /-s/, /-z/, /- əz /  The pronunciation of the suffix « –s » depends on the phonetic context.  Ex:    www.pearsoned.ca/ogrady

67. Allomorphs p. 95-96 (Rowe & Levine, 2012) Examples:  An & a  -s  The & the Rowe & Levine, 2012
