Suppletion
What is "suppletion"?
Suppletion is a linguistic phenomenon where an irregular morphological change occurs in a word, often involving the use of entirely different roots to express different grammatical forms. Instead of following a regular pattern of inflection or derivation, one form of the word is replaced with a different word. A common example is the English verb "to be," which has different forms such as "am," "is," and "are" instead of following a standard pattern. Suppletion can reveal historical connections between words and show how languages evolve over time.
Example
Suppletion refers to the phenomenon in morphology where an irregular form is used to express a grammatical contrast instead of regular inflection.
Suppletivita se odkazuje na jev v morfologii, kde je použita nepravidelná forma k vyjádření gramatického kontrastu místo pravidelné flexe.
An example of suppletion is the English verb " to be, " where the forms " am, " " is, " " are, " " was, " and " were " do not follow a regular pattern of inflection.
Příkladem suppletivity je anglické sloveso "to be", u kterého tvary "am", "is", "are", "was" a "were" následují nepravidelný vzor skloňování.
