*The root is the lexical centre of a word. It plays the greatest role in expressing meaning. (nt, sunny,
the root is sun, playful play)
*the inflection is the grammatical ending of the word and it has an abstract meaning(book-s, he goe-s,
-ing, -er). A part of the word that extends up to the inflection is the stem (alus). A stem may coinside
with the root (bus, car) or may contain affixes.

a)derivates have rootmorpheme and one or more affixes (nt, dis-satis-fied, man-ly)

and cream are stems)
