Part I: Introduction
1. The rationale
“Language is the most important social communication among countries and people in the world”, said V.I Lenin. As the world changes and develops, the global integration becomes the trend in all over the world. All countries, including Viet Nam have been cooperated with each other in many aspects of society in order to enhance development of economy. It designated international communication as an important part of all sectors. English is considered as the international language which is widely used all over the world. However, each language as well as English has its own typical features which make difficulties for learners. To learn English well, first of all, we should understand deeply about its morpheme system.
Living in a community, human beings need a tool to communicate with each other, and to carry on human and social affairs. They, therefore, arbitrarily named the things and occurrences around making use of vocal sounds for the purpose of communication. After that they showed the vocal sounds and sets of vocal sounds in written signals.
Because of these reasons, we decided to choose the topic “English morpheme system and some applications of learning morpheme in establishing words”.
2. Aims of the study
We hope that our study is useful for English learners, for those who want to consolidate their knowledge about morpheme. Furthermore, it can Giúp people significantly improve their vocabulary to apply in translation and finally, they can also guess meanings new words without using dictionary.
3. Scope of the study.
The elimination of the essay is from 15-20 pages, so we can only deal with
Definition, types of English morpheme.
Definition, types of Vietnamese morpheme.
Some suggestions in forming words.
4. The methods of the study.
To complete this study, we used some following methods:
+ Library research: we collected the data from curriculums, internet, and some valuable books of foreign and domestic scholars. We think these are valuable sources to effectively support for our study.
+ Comparison: we gave out the similarities and differences between English morpheme and Vietnamese morpheme.
5. Design of the study.
Our essay is divided into five main parts:
Part I: Introduction
Part II: Development
This is divided into 2 chapters:
Chapter 1: Some theoretical background knowledge.
Chapter 2: Comparison with Vietnamese morphology
Part III: Conclusion
Part IV: References
Part V: Exercises
Part II. Development
Chapter 1: Theoretical background
An overview of English morpheme
Definition
A morpheme is the smallest isolable unit in the linguistic structure which caries an independent meaning for example a noun or a verb stem as well as a suffix or prefix, and the meaning can be specific such as John (proper name), general such as a house, or purely grammatical such as pluralize, verbalize, etc.
The first part of the definition is the sequence of words smallest isolable unit, which means that these elements are the shortest stretches of sound which can be replaced by another such segment, and which always have some element of meaning attached to them, however broad or general this meaning might be.
The final requirement, for example, meaning associated with the segment, is necessary to eliminate the possibility of having two morphemes, such as cut and cot in which it might be said that the meaning difference between the two units was carried by the single phonemic distinction /ʌ/ and /ɔ/, which is of course true on the phonemic level of analysis, but it is probable also true that the meaning distinction is carried by only a single distinctive feature on the distinctive feature level of analysis.
These are some examples of morpheme:
One morpheme boy (one syllable)
desire, lady, water (two syllables)
crocodile (three syllables)
salamander (four syllables
Two morpheme boy + ish
desire + able
Three morpheme boy + ish + ness
desire + able + ity
Four morpheme gentle+man+li + ness un + desire + able + ity
More than four un + gentle + man + li + ness
anti + dis + establish + ment + ari + an + ism
Types of English morpheme
Morpheme
Root morpheme
Affixational morpheme
free morpheme
Bound morpheme
The inflectional morpheme
The derivational morpheme
Prefix
Suffix
Root morpheme
A root is a morpheme that cannot be analyzed into smaller parts. It is also called the lexical morpheme or simply the root.
Example: book, system, school, etc.
Free Root Morpheme: run, bottle, phone, etc.
Bound Root Morpheme: receive, remit, uncouth, nonchalant, etc
Free morphemes
Free morphemes are those that can stand alone as words.
E.g.: girl system
Desire hope
Act phone
Happy love
Bound morphemes
Bound morphemes (affixes) must be attached to the word. They are prefixes, infixes, suffixes, such as {happy} as in unhappy, happily, happiness) or they may be grammatical (such as called, closing, and faster).
Affixational morpheme
The affixational morpheme is further divided into inflectional morpheme and derivational morpheme.
The inflectional morpheme
Inflectional morphemes have grammatical meaning or function in the sentence, they never change part of speech. It also called grammatical morpheme.
Words can have an internal structure much like the syntax of phrases.
Morphemes such as the, -s, and re- near the grammatical end of the continuum are called grammatical morphemes.
Note that grammatical morphemes include forms that we can consider to be words like the, a, and, and of and others that make up parts of words like –s and -ed.
E.g. pencils walked
The derivational morpheme
Root morpheme combines with Derivational Morpheme forming a new word with a new meaning (usually change grammatical class)
N + Derivational Morpheme --> Adj
E.g.: mountain + ous,
Verb + Derivational Morpheme --> Noun
E.g.: clear + ance
Adj. + Derivational Morpheme --> Adverb
E.g.: Exact + ly
The Derivational morpheme consists of affix, which includes prefix and suffix.
Affix is a morpheme that comes at the beginning (prefix) or the ending (suffix) of a base morpheme. An affix usually is a morpheme that cannot stand alone.
Examples: -ful, -ly, -ity, -ness.
A few exceptions are able, like, and less.
a. Prefix is an affix that comes before a base morpheme.
E.g.: The -in in inspect.
b. Suffix is an affix that comes after a base morpheme.
E.g.: The -s in cats.
Vietnamese morpheme
Definition of Vietnamese morpheme
A Vietnamese morpheme is the smallest isolable unit in the linguistic structure which caries an independent meaning, forming by the repetition of that morpheme itself or some variants of that word
Derivational morpheme: word formation
There are 3 types of words in Vietnamese: simple (từ đơn), reduplicative (từ láy) and compound (từ ghép). Moreover, Vietnamese has borrowed vocabulary from other languages, including Chinese, French and English.
Simple words
Most simple words in Vietnamese are monosyllabic.The number of polysyllabic simple words such as bù nhìn (scarecrow), ễnh ương (frog), mồ...
