  "Is simply term for that branch of linguistics which concerned with the "forms of words" in different uses and constructions."

Morphology By Peter H. Matthews

• What is Morphology? 
  "In  linguistics morphology refers to the mental system involved in word formation or to the branch of linguistics taht deals with words, their internal structure, and how they are formed."
  What is Morphology By Mark Aronoff, Kirsten Fudeman
  
  
  • Morohology, in linguistics, study of the internal construction of words. Languages vary widely in the degree to which words can be analyzed into word elements, or  morphemes. In English there are numerous examples, such as "replacement," which is composed of re-, "place," ans-ment, and "walked," from the elements "walk" and -ed.
  Morphology includes the grammatical processes of inflection and derivation. Infelction marks categories such as person, tense and case.
