What is morphology, and why is it worthy of our consideration? Morphology, according the dictionary (that old book, gathering dust on the shelf that we never seem to use anymore) can have different meanings depending upon its use in linguistics, biology or other scientific endeavors. Generally, however, morphology refers “form” and “structure.” It relates to the shape of things, considered as a whole. When superheroes or characters from animated productions (cartoons) talk about “morphing” they are talking about changing shape. I, for one, would like to improve my morphology.
