What is "morphemization"?
Morphemization is the process of breaking down words into their smallest meaningful units, known as morphemes. This involves identifying and analyzing the individual components of a word, including roots, prefixes, and suffixes. For example, the word "unhappiness" can be divided into three morphemes: "un-", which indicates negation, "happy", the root word, and "-ness", which forms a noun. Morphemization is essential for understanding the structure and meaning of words, as it helps to reveal how different morphemes combine to create new meanings and grammatical forms in a language.
