Ingo PlagFirst published 20038 editions

Assuming no prior linguistic knowledge, this book explains the fundamentals of word-formation, showing how morphemes - the elements of a word's internal structure - can function both to relate words to other words, and to create new words. Students are encouraged to undertake their own morphological analyses of English words, and are familiarised with the methodological tools to obtain and analyse relevant data.
