Summary for M Sept 12

Handouts

Today we started talking about morphology, the study of words and their parts.  We discussed “lexical categories” like noun, verb, adjective, and so forth, and how we know what category a word belongs to.  We also covered some basic morphology terminology like bound/free morpheme, inflectional and derivational, isolating and agglutinative, affix, prefix, suffix, infix, circumfix, and non-concatenative morphology.
