What is morphology?• the study of the structure and content of word forms• the part of linguistic that deals with the study of words,
their internal structure.• It is also interested in how the users of a given language
understand complex words and invent new lexical items.• It is the subdiscipline of grammar.
![Page 3: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
What is lexicon?• A collection of linguistic knowledge that cannot be
captured by rules• The collection of words--the internalized dictionary--that
every speaker of the language has.• An understanding of the rules that govern the formation of
words• Similarities and differences in the behavior of words• The function of words
![Page 4: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
By the end of the class, you will have the linguistic background to answer the following questions:• What is morphology?• What is a morpheme?• How are morphemes classified?• How are words structured in Turkish?• What is an allomorph?
![Page 5: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
• Why is karşılıksız acceptable, but sevgiliksiz outrageous?
• What makes evdeler different from evlerde?
• Why is evdemler terrible, but dedemler perfectly fine?
• Key words:• Morphology• Morpheme• Free morpheme • Bound morpheme• Derivational morpheme• Inflectional morpheme• Morpheme ordering• Allomorphy
![Page 6: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
THE STRUCTURE OF WORDSSyllable structure vs Morpheme structureFree morphemes vs Bound morphemesDerivational morphemes vs Inflectional morphemes
![Page 7: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Two ways of analysing word structure• Through syllable structure• Through morpheme structure
![Page 8: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Syllable structure
• Table 1:
![Page 9: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Morpheme structure• Table 2:
![Page 10: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
• Table 3: morpheme and syllable boundaries
![Page 11: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• Table 4: compatibility between morphemes and syllables: hastalandım
![Page 12: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
• Table 5: compatibility between morphemes and syllables: yaşlandım
![Page 13: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The gist here:
• Simply coding the syllables of a word is not reliable way to code the morphemes of that word.
![Page 14: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
So,• What is a morpheme?• What is the criterion to identify a morpheme?
• Morphemes are the smallest meaningful units that construct words in a language.
![Page 15: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Our examples are constructed in the following way:
(1)YaşYaş-lanYaş-lan-dıYaş-lan-dı-m
(2) HastaHasta-lanHasta-lan-dıHasta-lan-dı-m

Remark• Morphemes might have different meanings, functions and
morphological standing.• Although morpheme and syllable boundaries of a word
may sometimes overlap, lack of correspondence between these boundaries is common.
• A single morpheme may be composed of more than one syllable.
• A single syllable may include more than one morpheme.

In terms of their morphological stand,ng, morphemes in gözcü can be classified into two groups
• Free morphemes• Bound morphemes
![Page 21: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

![Page 24: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
• Affixation: the attachment process of a bound morpheme to another morpheme.
• Affixes: the attached bound morphemes.
• Roots: words that are not affixed.
• An overwhelming number of roots in Turkish are monosyllabic:
• More than one syllable in a root is also permissible:
![Page 25: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Stem: the root or roots of a word, together with any derivational affixes, to which inflectional affixes are added. They are morphologically complex.Eg. Yaş-lı stemyaş-lı-lar stem
Çağ rootçağ-daş stem,çağ-daş-lık stem
![Page 26: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Complex words are formed through 3 types of affixation in a language:• Suffixes: placed after stem• Prefixes: before stem• Infixes: within stem
![Page 27: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
What about affixation in Turkish?• Sev-gi• Sev-gi-li• Sev-gi-li-ler
Loan words:• Anti-propaganda > propaganda• Gayri resmi > resmi• Bihaber > haber• Postmodern > modern
![Page 28: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Back to the case of gözcülerGöz- cü- ler
Free morphemes bound morphemes
content morpheme : derived N from a N having a meaning different from that of the stem
![Page 29: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
That is, some suffixes can change both the meaning and the syntactic class of the stemDerivation: a process of forming new words by using bound morphemesDerivational morphemes: the morphemes which add to or change the meaning of a stem word or the syntactic class of it.
Eg. Sat-ıcı-ICI: a derivational morpheme forming Ns from Ns
![Page 30: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
What other derivations are possible in Turkish?
• Table 6: examples of derivational suffixes
![Page 31: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
4 types of stems formed through derivation
Suffixes that attach to verbsDeverbal nominal stems: V > NDeverbal verbal stems: V > V
Suffixes that attach to nominalsDenominal nominal stems: N > NDenominal verbal stems: N > V
![Page 32: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Other derivational suffixes in Turkishnote that some suffixes are more productive than the others
• V>N: Kaz-I, güldür-Ü, kay-AK, sev-ECEN, san-AL, diz-GE
• V>V: dürt-ÜKLE, şaş-ALA, kaç-IN, ara-ŞTIR,
Consider the semantic differences –(I)ş provides• Koşuş-: denotes an unorganised manner• Bölüş-, kırış-: denotes a shared act• Kokuş-: denotes the intensity of a property of the root verb
![Page 33: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Other derivational suffixes in Turkishnote that some suffixes are more productive than the others
• N>V: tür-E-, kara-R-, şakır-DA, göz-ÜK-, güneş-LEN-, haber-LEŞ-, kir-LET-, su-SA-
• N>N: ana-Ç, sol-AK, yer-El, kök-En, dört-GEN,
Consider semantic differences –lI provides:• Atlı, sevgili, hızlı, akıllı : denotes the attribute of something• Üniversiteli, köylü: indicates a person belonging to or
coming from• Üçlü, altılı: indicates groups made of items containing that
number of objects
![Page 34: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Another productive suffix -lIk(1) Ns from Ns, adjectives or adverbs to indicate:• İyilik, çabukluk : the state relating to a particular concept• Askerlik, krallık: institutionalisation of the concept• Gözlük, başlık: an object associated with the body• Kitaplık, odunluk: a storage place• Zeytinlik, mezarlık: a place where the entity denoted by the N is found
collectively• Analık, evlatlık: a person whose relationship is analogous to the blood relation
(2) Adjectives which indicate:• Dolmalık, elbiselik: suitability for the type of entity• Günlük, aylık: periods of time• Ellilik: approximate age of a person
(3) Bir kiloluk, üç saatlik: express weight, length, capacity, value, price.

Is the lexicon composed of only free lexical morphemes and derivational bound morphemes?
Consider this:* Bu sınıf öğrenci hep öğretmen kız.
• Which noun is the subject above?• How are the other nouns and the verb related to it?
![Page 36: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Modified sentence with grammatical inflection:
• Bu sınıfta öğrenciler hep öğretmeni kızdırırlar.
Spatial relation plural direct obj.temporal structure of event
person agreement with subj
These morphemes did not create new words but mark grammatical relations: inflectional morphemes.Number, case, tense and agreement markers in Turkish are inflectional morphemes.
![Page 37: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
How different characteristics can combine in a single morpheme?• Let’s test «insan-lık» following the chart to discover type of the morpheme
![Page 38: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Another test to discover the type of the morpheme
• Consider the use of the infinitive marker –mAk
• Claim: whatever precedes the infinitive marker –mAk should be considered as the stem; therefore anything in it as derivational
Eg. Koşuş-tur-duThe infinitive form: koş-uş-tur-makWhat precedes –mAk: koş-uş-tur
Derivational morphemes
![Page 39: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)

Morpheme ordering Why are a and c are possible but not b?
a) Kalınlaştırılmamışlardanmışmşb) *Kalıntırlaşc) kalınlaştırılmamıştanmışmışlar
! Considering that Turkish is an agglunative language, the order
of morphemes in a sentence is fixed and each morpheme is used in the position specified for it.
b)Ungrammatical: causative-DIr is used after -lAş
![Page 42: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
If the morphemes are in right order, you can produce the followings grammatically
• öl-üm-süz-leş-tir-t-tir-il-e-me-yebil-in-en-ler-de-ki-ler-den-mi-ymis-ler-ce-sin-e
• Gör-üş-tür-ül-e-me-ye de bil-iyor-mu-ydu-nuz?

• *kes-ler-im vs kesimler
! Inflection follows derivation as derivational morphemes are more firmly attached than inflectional ones:
• Root+Derivation+Inflection

Allomorphy• Allomorphs: the variations of the same morpheme. • Every morpheme has predictable allomorphs in
complementary distribuiton, in that thay cannot appear in the same phonological environment (*evlar, *işlar,*okuller, *otoler).

How is the choice between /e/ and /a/ determined?
By the preceding stem vowel.
In (8a), all the preceding stem vowels are frontIn (8b), all the preceding stem vowels are non front
! Front vowels + [-ler] Back vowels + [-lar]

Other patterns of distribution for some productive allomorphs in Turkish:
• The morpheme marking reported past /-mIş/• The morpheme marking definite past /-DI/• The agentive morpheme /-CI/• First person agreement marker /-(y)Im/
![Page 56: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
The morpheme marking reported past /-mIş/
• 4 allomorphs – applies to Vs
Conditioned by the rounding harmony, the high suffix /i/• Back unrounded vowels + [-mış]• Front unrounded vowels + [-miş]• Back rounded vowels + [-muş]• Front rounded vowels + [-müş]

The morpheme marking definite past /-DI/
• 8 allomorphs – applies to Vs
Conditioned by preceding stem vowel and consonantConsonants share voicing feature: voiced con.+/d/ vs voiceless con. + /t/ Vowels share backness and rounding features
![Page 58: Morphology](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070422/5681645f550346895dd635fe/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
The agentive morpheme /-CI/• 8 allomorphs – applied to Ns –means one making or
selling N
• Conditioned by consonant harmony in voicing and rounding harmony in both backness and rounding

First person agreement marker /-(y)Im/
• 4 allomorphs – marks the subject of the sentence on predicative nouns and adjectives
• Conditioned by rounded harmony.• The buffer –y is inserted when the stem ends in a vowel
