Morphology studies how words can be formed to produce meaningful sentences.

Morphology

Modern linguistics is different from traditional grammar.

Syntax is different from morphology in that the former not only studies the morphemes, but also the combination of morphemes into words and words into sentences.

Pragmatics is different from semantics in that pragmatics studies meaning not in isolation, but in context.

The study of the ways in which morphemes can be combined to form words is called morphology.

Semantics

Modern linguistics regards the written language as primary, not the written language.

Both semantics and pragmatics study meanings.

Linguistics is generally defined as the s（）study of language.
