Định Nghĩa và Ý Nghĩa của "morphological typology"

What is "morphological typology"?

Morphological typology is a classification system that categorizes languages based on their morphological structure, specifically how they form words and express grammatical relationships. This approach identifies three main types: isolating or analytic languages, which use separate words for grammatical functions; agglutinative languages, which combine multiple affixes to a root word, each adding a specific meaning or function; and fusional languages, where affixes may combine multiple grammatical meanings in a single form. By examining these types, morphological typology helps linguists understand the diversity of language structures and the processes involved in word formation across different languages.
