It is concerned with how words are built from smaller units called morphemes, which are the smallest meaningful units in a language. This paper provides an introduction to morphology, exploring key concepts, types of morphemes, word formation processes, and the relevance of morphology in understanding languages. It is designed for beginners and aims to offer a clear, approachable explanation of this important area of linguistic study. Morphology, the study of the internal structure of words, has been a foundational field in linguistics, essential for understanding language formation, structure, and meaning. However, like many areas of linguistic study, morphology is not immune to critique. Scholars have raised questions about the theoretical assumptions underpinning morphological analysis, the limitations of traditional morphological frameworks, and the extent to which morphological analysis can fully explain the complexities of language use. This paper critically examines morphology from various perspectives, addressing both its strengths and weaknesses, and offers an evaluation of its relevance in contemporary linguistics.
