    Activity 3. State the difference between derivational morphemes and inflectional


    morphemes and give examples of each.

    Derivational morphology is the study of the formation of new words that differ from their
    bases in syntactic category or meaning. Inflectional morphology is the study of the
    modification of words to fit into various grammatical situations. As a result, the primary
    difference between inflectional and derivational morphology can this be. Besides that,
    the difference between inflectional and derivational morphology in terms of usage is that
    inflectional morphemes are affixes that merely serve as grammatical markers and
    indicate some grammatical information about a word, whereas derivational morphemes
    are affixes that can change the meaning or grammatical category of a word.

    The major distinction between inflectional and derivational morphology is that


    inflectional morphology is concerned with the development of different forms of the
    same word, whereas derivational morphology is concerned with the formation of new
    words.

    EXAMPLE OF INFLECTIONAL MORPHEME

    You can add an inflectional morphology to a verb, noun, adjective, or an adverb. For
    example, adding a ‘-s’ to the verb plural verb ‘run’ can make this verb singular. Similarly,
    adding ‘-ed’ to the verb dance creates the past tense of the verb (danced).

    Some more examples are as follows:

    Cat à Cats

    Teach à Teaches

    Clean à Cleaned

    Prettyà Prettier

    EXAMPLE OF DERIVATIONAL MORPHEME


    A derivational morpheme can either change the meaning or the grammatical category of
    the word. For example,

    Leaf → Leaflet

    Pure →Impure

    Change in Grammatical Category

    Help (verb) → Helper (noun)

    Logic (noun) → Logical (adjective)
