The Story of Man, by Samina Hadi-Tabassum
Would you like to go on a journey? Come get on a boat with us sailing from the British Isles to the Mediterranean Sea. The passengers on the boat are unusual ones…they are Old English morphemes like the root word MAN and their travels lead them to strange encounters with Latin morphemes and Greek morphemes in faraway places.
Readers will learn how words are made by attaching morphemes to root words. When doing so, we can change the meaning of that root word as well as its tone and feeling. Morphemes act like people in this book, full of character and action. This imaginative book is for adults who love to play with language as well as for children and students trying to understand how the English language works.
