    1. Meaning determined by or through syntax and morphology - Grammatical meaning

    Through the reference to its function in a sentence and determining the meaning of a word by word order is known as grammatical meaning.

    For example, - sat on Humpty Dumpty a wall. (without grammatical meaning)

    - Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall. (with grammatical meaning)

    2. The aspect of grammar dealing with word order and word relationships - Syntax

    Syntax refers to the arrangement of a word in a proper sentence to create a sense.

    For example

    - The girl played joyously

    - The girl joyously played

    -Joyously, the girl played.

    Each sentence is correct in its form grammatically.

    3. The relationship of word parts to one another - Morphology

    'Morph' means to form or shape and '-ology' means a study of something. Hence it refers to the study of the structures internally.

    4. The smallest unit of semantic or grammatical meaning, including words, bases, affixes, and inflections - morpheme

    It refers to the word or part of a word that derives a meaning. Also known as the root or base word which gives the principal meaning to a word.

    For example

    - the base word 'healthy', when affix '-un' occurs it becomes 'unhealthy'.

    5. A word part used to indicate tense, mood, gender, case, and number - inflection.

    For example

    - verbs are inflected into tenses (ride - riding),

    -nouns are inflected in the plural (bus - buses),

    -adjectives are inflected into superlative/comparative (happy - happier).
