    This document discusses word structures and morphology. It defines morphology as the study of the internal structure of words and morphemes, which are the smallest units of meaning or function. Words are composed of one or more morphemes. The order of morphemes matters in determining a word's meaning. There are different types of morphemes, including allomorphs which have the same function but different forms. Examples are provided to illustrate morphological concepts like plural morphemes and case in Slavic languages.

    INTRODUCTION
     Matthews (1991:3) states that, “Morphology,
    therefore, is simply a term for that branch of
    linguistics which is concerned with the ‘form of
    words’ in different uses and contraction”. The object
    of morphology is term that has correlation with
    formation of words. Word formation is creation of a
    new word, sometimes it changes the word’s
    meaning and class.

     While, Lehmann (1976) and Srijono (2001:49)


    stated that “Morphology is the study of morphemes,
    their variation, and their combination in words”.
    INTRODUCTION
    A dictionary is a kind of book that contained the
    complete vocabularies or words. It is arranged
    based on alphabetical order. A dictionary is
    important for people, especially the students.
    Because you can look for the meaning of words that
    you want, like English to Indonesian. It explains the
    meaning of vocabularies or words. It helps the
    people to know the new vocabularies or words and
    the meaning of the vocabularies or words. In
    addition, it also clarifies about the purpose of words,
    the manner saying the words and the example of
    manner using the words to make a sentence.
    INTRODUCTION
    A dictionary has some functions. First, it has the
    meaning based on the benefit. Second, it
    determines the meaning and the usefulness of
    the word, and the people pronounce it based on
    the phonetic transcription. Third, it explains the
    helps the people to find the meaning of the word
    and the manner using the word its. The dictionary
    can help us to find the words that we want. We
    can control the spelling of the words and look for
    the standard language, the synonym or antonym
    or acronym of the words.
    INTRODUCTION
    There are some types of dictionary, for instances:
    monolingual, bilingual, and various language
    dictionaries. A monolingual dictionary uses only
    one language, like a big Indonesian dictionary. A
    bilingual dictionary uses two languages, like an
    English-Indonesia dictionary. A various language
    dictionary uses three or more languages, like a
    Malay-Chinese-English dictionary. In this time, the
    writer 3 uses a bilingual dictionary to be
    analyzed, especially an English-Indonesian
    dictionary.
    BASIC TERMINOLOGY
     Morphology – study of internal structure
    of words.

    Morpheme – the smallest linguistic unit


    which has a meaning or grammatical
    function. Words are composed of
    morphemes (one or more). There are some
    complications with this simple definition.
    BASIC TERMINOLOGY
    sing·er·s, home·work, moon·light,
    un·kind·ly, talk·s, ten·th, flipp·ed,
    de·nation·al·iz· ation

    • The order of morphemes


    matters: talk·ed = *ed·talk,
    re·write = *write·re
    BASIC TERMINOLOGY
    Morph. The term morpheme is used both to refer
    to an abstract entity and its concrete
    realization(s) in speech or writing. When it is
    needed to maintain the signified and signifier
    distinction, the term morph is used to refer to
    the concrete entity, while the term morpheme is
    reserved for the abstract entity only.

    Allomorphs – morphemes having the same


    function but different form. Unlike the synonyms
    they usually cannot be replaced one by the other.
    BASIC TERMINOLOGY
    (1) a. indefinite article: an orange
    – a building
    b. plural morpheme: cat·s [s] –
    dog·s [z] – judg·es [@s]

    (2) a. matk·a ‘mothernom’– matek


    ‘mothersgen’ – matc·e ‘motherdat’ –
    matˇc·in ‘mother’s’
