AGGLUTINATION
Means combining two or more morphemes or
language units that have meanings.
A grammatical process in which words are composed of a
sequence of morphemes (meaningful word elements),
each of which represents not more than a single
grammatical category.

This term is traditionally employed in the


typological classification of languages.
Turkish, Finnish, and Japanese are among the
languages that form words by agglutination
It is the addition of a large number of affixes one
after another

AGGLUTINATING
LANGUAGE

AFFIXES
Were added to change the parts of speech
of the base word to function based on the
need of the writer.
Another term used for this change of word
using affixes is inflection.
And it is divided into two kinds, the suffix
and prefix.
