, INTRODUCTION
Humans use language for communication with each other, and language is a
system of communication. It is useful to compare it with other systems of
communication. For instance, humans communicate not just through language but
through such means as gesture, art, dress and music . It means that people
communicate not only use language as communication but also through other
system. English is one of language that most widely used in the world. English is
one of important subject in schools.1
One of the important decisions to strengthen the teaching of foreign languages
and improve its quality was made by the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan,
Sh. Mirziyoyev, on May 6, 2021. as noted at the video selector meeting, "Starting
next year, new foreign language teachers will be required to have a national and
international certificate. This, in turn, will affect English is a great attention. Being
able to master the four basics language skills, the learner should have the capability
of using body language in English teaching classes. One of the most important
aspects of a thesis, dissertation or research paper is the correct formulation of the
aims and objectives. This is because your aims and objectives will establish the
scope, depth and direction that your research will ultimately take. An effective set
of aims and objectives will give your research focus and your reader clarity, with
your aims indicating what is to be achieved, and your objectives indicating how it

,will be achieved. Where a research aim specifies what your study will answer,
research objectives specify how your study will answer it. In doing so, it acts as a
focal point for your research and provides your readers with clarity as to what your
study is all about. Because of this, research aims are almost always located within
its own subsection under the introduction section of a research document.The
existence of words is usually taken for granted by the speakers of a language. To
speak and understand a language means – among many other things – knowing the
words of that language. The average speaker knows thousands of words, and new
words enter our minds and our language on a daily basis. This module is about
words. More specifically, it deals with the internal structure of complex words, i.e.
words that are composed of more than one meaningful element. Take, for example,
the very word meaningful, which could be argued to consist of two elements,
meaning and -ful, or even three, mean, -ing, and – ful. We will address the
question of how such words are related to other words and how the language
allows speakers to create new words. For example, meaningful seems to be clearly
related to colorful, but perhaps less so to awful or plentiful. And, given that
meaningful may be paraphrased as ‘having (a definite) meaning’, and colorful as
‘having (bright or many different) colors’, we could ask whether it is also possible
to create the word coffeeful, meaning ‘having coffee’. Under the assumption that
language is a rule-governed system, it should be possible to find meaningful
answers to such questions.
It has been estimated that average speakers of a language know from 45,000
to 60,000 words. This means that we as speakers must have stored these words
somewhere in our heads, our so-called mental lexicon. But what exactly is it that
we have stored? What do we mean when we speak of ‘words’? In non-technical
every-day talk, we speak about ‘words’ without ever thinking that this could be a
4
, problematic notion. In this section we will see that, perhaps contra our first
intuitive feeling, the ‘word’ as a linguistic unit deserves some attention, because it
is not as straightforward as one might expect. If you had to define what a word is,
you might first think of the word as a unit in the writing system, the so-called
orthographic word. You could say, for example, that a word is an uninterrupted
string of letters which is preceded by a blank space and followed either by a blank
space or a punctuation mark. In traditional grammar, words are the basic units of
analysis. Grammarians classify words according to their parts of speech and
identify and list the forms that words can show up in. Words are the main units
used for entries in dictionaries. In fact Words are potentially complex units,
composed of even more basic units, called morphemes. A morpheme is the
smallest part of a word that has grammatical function or meaning.Language users
do this in three major ways. One way is to simply import a useful word from
another language, just like people import useful products from other countries.
This is how an Italian word like pizza or a Japanese word like karaoke became
English words. Words that are circulated in this way among languages are called
borrowings. Secondly, language users can change the meaning of words already in
the language, to make them mean different things. The English word sad, for
example, is currently used to mean something similar to ‘pathetic‘, besides keeping
its meaning of ‘unhappy’. In this new use, a sad joke is not a joke that makes you
cry, but a joke that doesn’t make you laugh. A third way of creating new words in
a language involves manipulating not just their meaning but also their grammar, by
disassembling the morphemes from the words in which they appear, and
reassembling them into new words. This is what word formation is about.
Knowing that a morpheme –er means ‘someone who Vs’, as we saw in the
previous chapter, we can safely create a brand-new noun emailer to mean
