Agglutination and fusion

The terms "agglutination" and "fusion" is usually used to refer to two trends of affixation in the languages of the world. The agglutination is called "mechanical connection is unambiguous, standard affixes to the invariant roots" [Reformatsky 2000: 272]. Agglutination in the Russian language manifests itself in as prefixes in Russian standard the different parts of speech, and their unequivocal adherence to the roots leads to a narrow spike of prefixes and roots. When agglutination of a word grammatically framed as a whole, it is a combination of (biomes) from making basis and the formative element, and is a sequence of independent, retains its significance morphemes. As the method of forming agglutination opposed to the fusion.

The term "fusion" proposed by E. Sairam to refer to a particular type of affixation, accompanied by a sound alternation at the junction of morphemes. In many languages the root and affixes "the most skillful and zaputannee way possible to find anywhere else, not revealing, however, signs of a kind of formalism, which so sharply distinguishes such languages as Latin and Greek as representatives of the inflectional type" [sepir 1993: 125]. Under the fusion is understood as "the close accession of non-standard affixes, which may be multi-valued, the roots of which can be changed with" [Reformatsky 2000: 272]. Fusion refers to the morphonological phenomena which arises historically on the basis of phonology, and in the course of language evolution becomes the basis for morphological changes.

Agglutination is the formation in languages, grammatical forms and derived words by attaching to the root or base words affixes with grammatical and derivational meanings.

Fusion (lat. fusio — the fusion) is a method of joining morphemes in which phonetic changes (alternation) at the junction of morphemes make a non-obvious place morphemic boundaries.

Look for agglutination as "the merging of the two words habitually combined, sometimes with goes back to F. , whereby agglutination "is that two or more words that are originally separate, but often occurring within a single sentence in a single phrase, merged in completely or almost completely unit".

F. Saussure distinguishes three phases in the process of agglutination: (1) the combination of several elements in a single phrase; (2) synthesis of the elements of the phrase in the new unit; (3) other changes to assist the"cementing" the combination into one word and that is happening already when a new concept is fully formed. not only describes the process of agglutination, but also raises the question and the reasons that lead to merging several words into one. In his opinion, the cause of all accentuation phonetic and semantic changes is a synthesis of some combination of words into more simple words because the native speakers in these combinations are beginning to perceive a single concept.

Today the phenomenon called agglutination with , is considered as , the way lexical and syntactic word formation, in which there is fusion of the components of the phrase in relnofollow unit, characterized by idiomaticity semantics and preserving unchanged the syntactic relations between the components.

Agglutination is characteristic of most languages of Asia, Africa, Oceania (which are particles), fusion — basically a property of Indo-European languages (including Russian), although there are elements of agglutination.

Cases of agglutination in the Russian language appear in prefixal as prefixes in Russian is unambiguous standard for different parts of speech and their connection to roots does not have the character close fusing: for example, pour. In the Russian postfixation agglutinating cases can occur as an exception; for example, the reflexive affix -sja (-s) or "incentive" to me, joining an already issued inflections of the words: moving, let's get you out, denemesi on.

An example of fusion is, incidentally, the word fusio; it is connected to the root fu(n)d - the suffix-tio, and-d and t - overlap each other and give-s-, "through which" passes a morphemic boundary. This is a partial fusion (as fu - undoubtedly belongs to the root, and the -io suffix). A full example of fusion is, for example, Russian infinitive to cut where it is impossible to unambiguously identify the suffix; the usual morpheme -th, by alternating "merged" with the last consonant of the root is g and "dissolved" in the Bud: cut+t'=stritch'.

When the fusion particles externally and internally closely soldered with roots and with each other and in the composition of these "alloys" loses its meaning, like "fade" and "erased".
