Morphophonology is the study of how sounds and word structures interact in a language. It looks at how the pronunciation of words changes when morphemes, the smallest units of meaning, are combined. For example, in English, adding the plural "-s" to a word can be pronounced differently, like "cats" with an "s" sound or "dogs" with a "z" sound. Morphophonology helps explain these changes and how they are connected to the structure of words.
