The word is a unit of speech, which serves the purposes of human communication. The term word denotes the basic unit of a given language resulting from the association of a particular meaning with a particular group of sounds capable of a particular grammatical employment. A word therefore is simultaneously a semantic, grammatical and phonological unit. The modern approach to word studies is based on distinguishing between the external and the internal structures of the word. By external structure we mean the morphological structure of the word. The following morphemes can be distinguished here: the prefixes, the suffixes, the root. The internal structure of the word, or its meaning, is referred to as the word‟s semantic structure. It‟s the word‟s main aspect.
