beginning and the end of the word are clipped, e.g. tec (detective),
van (avanguard) etc.
Sometimes shortening influences the spelling of the word,
e.g. “c” can be substituted by “k” before “e” to preserve
pronunciation, e.g. mike (microphone). Coke (coca-cola) etc. The
same rule is observed in the following cases: fax (facsimile), teck
(technical college), trank (tranquilizer) etc. The final consonants
in the shortened forms are substituted by letters characteristic of
native English words.
Questions:
1. What is a morpheme?
2. What two large groups morphemes are divided into?
3. What is the aim of derivational analysis?
4. What is a word-building?
5. What classifications of suffixes do you know?
6. What is a composition?
7. Give the definition of conversion.
8. What are two main types of shortening?
Test 4
1. Morpheme is:
a) the main unit of lexical system.
b) the smallest language unit which can stand alone as
complete utterance.
c) the smallest meaningful language unit.
d) A group of words which exists in the language as a
ready-made unit.
2. Affixation is:
a) a way of word-building consisting in adding an affix
to the stem of a definite part of speech.
b) a way of word-building consisting in adding an affix
to the stem of a noun.
c) shortening of words.
d) A type of morphological analysis.
