bound and free morphemes









































in general linguistics, a bound morpheme is a morpheme (the elementary unit of morphosyntax) that can appear only as part of a larger expression; a free morpheme (or unbound morpheme) is one that can stand alone. a bound morpheme is a type of bound form, and a free morpheme is a type of free form.









































section::::roots and affixes.









































many roots in english are free morphemes (e.g. "ship-" in "shipment"), but others are bound (e.g. "socio-" in "sociology". words like "chairman" that contain two free morphemes ("chair" and "man") are referred to as compound words.

null morpheme









































in morphology, a null morpheme or zero morpheme is a morpheme that has no phonetic form. in simpler terms, a null morpheme is an "invisible" affix. it is a concept useful for analysis, by contrasting null morphemes with alternatives that do have some phonetic realization. the null morpheme is represented as either the figure zero ("0") or the empty set symbol ∅.
