What's in a word? An introduction to morphology

Linguistics HQ di Dr Rebecca Mitchell

Note sull'episodio

Have you ever wondered how new words are made? Or how to avoid getting delayed by a chatty Aztec? Is talk of acronyms giving you FOMO? This episode looks at derivational morphology and all the different ways in which languages create their own words, from compounding to back formation to blending. And for a cross-disciplinary twist, we've also got maths with dogs! Don't miss it!
