请问英语中morpheme,morphs,allomorph之间的区别到底是什么?
资料中对morphs的定义是这样的:Morphemes are abstract units,which are realized in speech by discrete units known as morphs.They are actual spoken,minimal carriers of meaning.
读来读去好费解啊.morpheme和allpmorph都能够理解,但是看了morph就不知道该把它排到哪一类了.
请问英语中morpheme,morphs,allomorph之间的区别到底是什么?
Well, those are specific terms used in English phonetics and phonology and they can only be understood in English, and English only.
morpheme=morph+eme
eme=the minimal unit of ...
morph= another FORM
allomorth=2 or more variant morphs belonging to the same morpheme
That is about it.
再问: 恩。。 morph确实是morpheme的一部分,但是比如cats和inter,他们的morpheme,morph和allomorph又分别指什么呢?
再答: cats have 2 morphs, not one. cats=cat+s -s is a morpheme as well the allomorphs of the morpheme -s include the plural and the third person singular DONE.
再问: Yeah! ;) -s的话,是inflectional affix吧?:) 但是cat不也是morpheme吗?它也是个free morpheme吧?
再答: Well, if linguistics is the focus of study, -s should have been called a suffix, part of an affix. There are some languages that will have, perhaps inflectional prefixes, but in English they are all suffixes. CAT is a morpheme.
