more morphemes. Morphemes are meaningful units or sounds of written representation as parts of words. Any word can be a subject of certain linking conditions‚ so we can form a new word adding a derivational affix‚ e.g. write and writer Functional affixes can form new grammatical functions of any word‚ e.g. write – written‚ writing. As for the definition of a word it’s a disputable question in linguistics because any word has many different aspects: phonemes compile a sound form; Morphemes arrange

developing children. In addition‚ imitation is another way that could help SLI children. Connell and Stone (1992) conducted a study where they taught SLI and normal developing children the comprehension and production of novel morphemes. They asked children to imitate the morphemes after they taught them. After 4 teaching sessions over two weeks‚ it was found that SLI children’s grammar was significantly improved through the imitation technique. Furthermore‚ bilingualism is another factor that could cause

A hyphen ( - ) is used to show the separation of morphemes in a word‚ as injump-ing for Englishjumping. Occasionally‚ a plus sign (+) is used to show a morpheme boundary in a context where it is necessary to show more explicitly the pieces which some example is composed of. It is standard practice to use an asterisk (*) to represent reconstructed forms‚

division Speech can be broken into minimal pronounceable units into which sounds show a tendency to cluster or group. These smallest phonetic groups arc generally given the name of syllables. Being the smallest pronounceable units‚ syllables form morphemes‚ words and phrases. Each of these units is characterized by a certain syllabic structure. Thus a meaningful language unit phonetically may be considered from the point of view of syllable formation and syllable division. The syllable is a
