Deskripsi:
Understanding Morphosyntax: Structure, Meaning, and Usage in EFL Contexts provides a comprehensive introduction to the study of morphology and syntax for English language learners and students of linguistics. The book explores how words are formed, how sentences are structured, and how these linguistic forms contribute to meaning and communication in EFL contexts. The book consists of fourteen chapters organized into two major sections. The first section (Chapters 1–7) focuses on morphology, covering the introduction to morphology, the concept and tests of word, lexeme and word form, morphemes and allomorphs, the internal structure of morphemes, inflection and derivation, and word-building and word-formation processes. These chapters provide students with the foundational knowledge necessary to analyze the structure and formation of words in English. The second section (Chapters 8–14) focuses on syntax, examining sentence structure, phrase structure rules, recursion, modification, structural ambiguity, sentence meaning, complex verb forms, real and apparent sentence structures, and the generalization of syntactic rules and functional categories. Through these topics, students are introduced to the principles governing sentence formation and interpretation. Written in clear and accessible language, this book combines theoretical explanations with practical examples and exercises to support learning and analysis. It serves as a valuable resource for undergraduate students, language teachers, and researchers seeking a solid foundation in English morphosyntax and its application in EFL settings.
