homonymy - ANSWERSrelation between words whose forms are the same (sound or
spelling) but whose meanings are different and cannot be connected

a word with independent meaning
cannot be divided without altering or destroying its meaning

free morpheme - ANSWERScan stand alone, cannot be divided into smaller units

bound morpheme - ANSWERScannot stand alone as a word

re-

allomorph - ANSWERS[W]hen we find a group of different morphs, all versions of one
morpheme, we can use the prefix allo- ( = one of a closely related set) and describe
them as allomorphs of that morpheme.

derivational affix - ANSWERSDerivational morphemes are used to change the
grammatical categories of words. For example, the derivational morpheme -er is used to
transform the verbbake into the noun baker. The morpheme -ly changes the adjective
quick into the adverb quickly. We can change adjectives such as happy into nouns such
ashappiness by using the derivational morpheme -ness. Other common suffixes include
-ism, -tion, -able, -ment and -al. Derivational morphemes can also be prefixes, such as
un-, in-, pre- and a-.
-adds meaning in the stem changes word for example, a noun to an adjective, etc.

inflectional affix - ANSWERSinflectional morphemes serve as grammatical markers that
indicate tense, number,possession, or comparison. Inflectional morphemes in English
include the suffixes -s(or -es); 's (or s'); -ed; -en; -er; -est; and -ing. n inflectional
morpheme does not have the capacity to change the meaning or the syntactic class of
the words it is bound to and will have a predictable meaning for all such words.

affix - ANSWERSa letter or sound, or group of letters or sounds added to a word, which
changes the meaning or function of a word.
prefix- beginning of a word
suffix- end of a word (root)
infix- within a word
