6.In linguistics,a compound is a lexeme (less precisely,a word) that consists of more than one stem.Compounding occurs when two or more words are joined together to make them one word.
7.
-Free morphemes can function independently as words (e.g.town,dog) and can appear with other lexemes (e.g.town hall,doghouse).
-Bound morphemes appear only as parts of words,always in conjunction with a root and sometimes with other bound morphemes.For example,un- appears only accompanied by other morphemes to form a word.Most bound morphemes in English are affixes,particularly prefixes and suffixes,examples of suffixes are:tion,ation,ible,ing etc..Bound morphemes that are not affixes are called cranberry morphemes.
Bound morphemes can be further classified as derivational or inflectional.
-Derivational morphemes,when combined with a root,change either the semantic meaning or part of speech of the affected word.For example,in the word happiness,the addition of the bound morpheme -ness to the roothappy changes the word from an adjective (happy) to a noun (happiness).In the word unkind,un- functions as a derivational morpheme,for it inverts the meaning of the word formed by the root kind.
-Inflectional morphemes modify a verb's tense or a noun's number without affecting the word's meaning or class.Examples of applying inflectional morphemes to words are adding -s to the root dog to form dogs and adding -ed to wait to form waited.
8.
- the deep structure of a linguistic expression is a theoretical construct that seeks to unify several related structures.For instance,a passive sentence like (1a) was claimed to have a Deep Structure in which thenoun phrases are in the order of the correspondingactive (1b):(1a) The bear was chased by the lion.
(1b) The lion chased the bear.Similarly,a question such as (2a) was claimed to have a Deep Structure closely resembling that of the corresponding declarative (2b):(2a) Which martini did Harry drink?
(2b) Harry drank that martini.
-Surface structure can be defined as the syntactic form they take as actual sentences.In the other words,it is forms of sentences resulted from modification/ transformation.Consider these sentences:
(1) You close the door.(2) The door is closed by you.(3) Close the door!
9.Micro-linguistics includes phonetics,phonology,morphology,syntax,semantics,and pragmatics.
Macro-linguistics includes sociolinguistics,psycholinguistics,neurolinguistics,stylistics,discourse analysis,computational linguistics,cognitive linguistics,and applied linguistics.
