What is "morphology"?
Morphology is the study of how words are formed and structured. It looks at the smallest units of meaning in a language, called morphemes, and examines how these units come together to create different words. For example, adding "-s" to a noun makes it plural, or adding "-ed" to a verb can indicate past tense. Morphology helps explain how languages use these building blocks to create meaningful expressions.
