MORPHOLOGY - the branch of linguistics dealing with the internal structure and formations of words

Units called WORDS are composed of units called MORPHEMES.

MORPHEME - the smallest individually meaningful element in the utterances of a language

A WORD may be composed of several morphemes -> such a complex form is a reflection of linear order (morphemes are put together or added to another complex form)

MEAN | ING | FUL

root affixes

free morpheme - can function bound morphemes - never

as an independent word occur in isolation

Some words are morphologically SIMPLEX -> MONOMORPHEMIC (consisting of one morpheme) (mean, the, element)

EMPTY MORPHEMES - units of form without corresponding meaning (malin-a) - they do not mean anything on their own

PAR-O-WÓZ DW-U-PIĘTROWY

connective vowels (examples of empty morphemes)

*TWO CASES IN WHICH THE MEANING-BASED DEFINITION OF THE MORPHEME FAILS

1.

CRAN | BERRY MAL | INA

| meaningful | meaningful

| unit? | unit?

BLUE | BERRY JARZĘB | INA However, the residual elements
BLACK | BERRY ŻURAW | INA `cran-` and `mal-` do not occur independently

2.

ZERO MORPHEME - units of meaning without form, (to) cook - (a) cook

WORD-FORMS - a combination of phonetic or orthographic units, potentially constituting a fragment of a larger utterance

LEXEME - a dictionary item/an abstract notion; a lexeme may have several contextual realizations in terms of a particular word forms -> one of such forms is the CITATION-FORM

CITATION FORM - the form of a lexeme that refers to the given lexeme in dictionaries (np. w słownikach języka polskiego rzeczowniki występują w mianowniku i l.poj.; przymiotniki w mianowniku , l.poj. i r. męskim)

MATKA KUPIĆ DZIECKO NOWY BUT

MORPH - a textual, context-sensitive realization of a morpheme

ALLOMORPHS - distinct morphs that may represent a morpheme (as an abstract); different realization of the same morpheme.

ALTERNATIONS IN MORPHOLOGY

1. BUT - [but] buty distribution of allomorphs is PHONOLOGICALLY CONDITIONED

- [buć] bucik

2. KOŃ - KONIE [-e] distribution of endings depends on gender of nouns -> such alternations are

NOC - NOCE [-e] MORPHOLOGICALLY (GRAMMATICALLY) CONDITIONED

OKNO - OKNA [-a]

SERCE - SERCA [-a]

PAN - PANOWIE [-ov'je]

3. DZIECKO [dzieck] DZIECI [dzieć] LEXICALLY CONDITIONED alternation

different root morphemes

RULE OF ALLOMORPHY - apply to a morpheme of other than phonologically designated set of morphemes, in the immediate environment of a designated morpheme or set of morphemes

MORPHOLOGY

Is divided into 2 subcomponents

INFLECTIONAL MORPHOLOGY DERIVATIONAL MORPHOLOGY

Production of word-forms corresponding to a given Methods of forming new lexemes from
lexeme, marking morpho-syntactic categories like: the already existing ones

*some processes (adverb-formation) are between inflection and derivation.

AFFIXES (formatives) may be divided into inflectional and derivational.

STEM - the part of the word-form which remains when all inflectional affixes have been removed

PŁACZ | ĄC | EGO

verbal stem inflectional morphemes (affixes)

BASE - a lexeme/morpheme from which another complex lexeme is formed

Word-forms which represent a given lexeme are organized into PARADIGMS -> closed set of forms of which only one may fill a particular syntactic slot

Nom. KOT - o

Instr. KOT - EM <- information about case, number and gender is enclosed in this formative `-EM'

`-EM' is a CUMULATIVE EXPONENT of 3 different inflectional categories:

Case, number and gender

INFLECTIONAL SYNCRETISM - some endings in noun declension (in Polish) are used more than once to mark distinct inflections -> neutralization of certain inflectional oppositions within the paradigm as well as in syntactic context

CREATIVITY - one is capable of producing virtually unlimited number of (derived) words; the native speaker's ability to extend the language system in a motivated, but unpredictable (non-rule-governed) way

PRODUCTIVITY - one of the defining features of human language; allows the native speaker to produce an infinitely large number of sentences, many (or most) of which have never been produced before

PROCESS OF WORD-COINING - English adjectives: contractile, erectile, flexile

Unique suffixes: laughter, hatred, bishopric, rękaw

REGULARITY - there are regular rules for making up new words

TRANSFORMATIONALIST APPROACH - morphology was not a separate component of the grammar but rather formed an integral part of syntax; derivation of complex words by means of transformation

LEXICALIST APPROACH - derivational morphology (as a separate component of the grammar) should be removed from syntax and made part of an extended lexicon (special word formation rules)

LEXICON - a list of lexical entries where information on each lexeme is provided

LEXICALIZATION - coining new lexemes as a result of applying a productive morphological rule to a base form; the element `-ure' was mildly productive in deriving nouns but now new words are no longer derived by this element (all nouns ending with `-ure' have to be listed in the lexicon -> whole derivational pattern has undergone lexicalization)

SEMANTIC LEXICALIZATION - kind of lexicalization where a derived lexeme has developed an unpredictable meaning

BLOCKING - the nonoccurrence of one form one to the simple existence of another -> the presence in the lexicon of the abstract noun `glory' blocks the derivation of `gloriosity' from the adjective “glorious'(it does not affect the highly productive nominalizer `-ness' - `gloriousness')

SUPRASEGMENTAL FEATURES - connected with intonation, pitch, laudness. Sometimes it can change the meaning.

SUPRAFIXATION - insult /'insalt; in'salt/

NON-AFFIXATION PROCESSES

PROBLEMS WITH THE MORPHEME

    1. conversion (to father - a father)

    2. truncation (David - Dave)

    3. extended exponence

    4. desegmentation (confer, refer, prefer; keep-kept)
