href="/wiki/Synthetic_language" title="Synthetic language">synthetic language</a> with <a href="/wiki/Morphology_(linguistics)" title="Morphology (linguistics)">morphology</a> that primarily uses <a href="/wiki/Agglutination" title="Agglutination">agglutination</a>. In an agglutinative language, words contain multiple <a href="/wiki/Morpheme" title="Morpheme">morphemes</a> concatenated together, but in such a manner that individual <a href="/wiki/Word_stem" title="Word stem">word stems</a> and <a href="/wiki/Affix" title="Affix">affixes</a> can be isolated and identified as to indicate a particular inflection or derivation, although this is not a rule: for example, <a href="/wiki/Finnish_language" title="Finnish language">Finnish</a> is a typical agglutinative language, but morphemes are subject to (sometimes unpredictable) consonant alternations called <a href="/wiki/Consonant_gradation" title="Consonant gradation">consonant gradation</a>. </p><p>Despite the occasional outliers, agglutinative languages tend to have more easily deducible word meanings compared to <a href="/wiki/Fusional_language" title="Fusional language">fusional languages</a>, which allow unpredictable modifications in either or both the <a href="/wiki/Phonetics" title="Phonetics">phonetics</a> or <a href="/wiki/Spelling" title="Spelling">spelling</a> of one or more morphemes within a word, usually resulting from a shortening of the word or to make pronunciation easier. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Overview">Overview</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Agglutinative_language&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Overview"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Agglutinative languages have generally one <a href="/wiki/Grammatical_category" title="Grammatical category">grammatical category</a> per affix while fusional languages combine multiple into one. The term was introduced by <a href="/wiki/Wilhelm_von_Humboldt" title="Wilhelm von Humboldt">Wilhelm von Humboldt</a> to classify languages from a <a href="/wiki/Morphology_(linguistics)" title="Morphology (linguistics)">morphological</a> point of view.<sup id="cite_ref-Stocking1992_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Stocking1992-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It is derived from the <a href="/wiki/Latin" title="Latin">Latin</a> verb <i>agglutinare</i>, which means "to glue together".<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> For example, the English word <i><a href="/wiki/Antidisestablishmentarianism" title="Antidisestablishmentarianism">antidisestablishmentarianism</a></i> can be broken up into <i>anti-</i> "against", <i>dis-</i> "to deprive of", <i>establish</i> (here referring to the formation of the Church of England), <i>-ment</i> "the act of", <i>-arian</i> "a person who", and <i>-ism</i> "the ideology of". On the other hand, in a word such as <i>runs</i>, the singular suffix <i>-s</i> indicates the verb is both in third person and present tense, and cannot be further broken down into a "third person" morpheme and a "present tense" morpheme; this behavior is reminiscent of fusional languages. </p><p>The term <i>agglutinative</i> is sometimes incorrectly used as a synonym for <a href="/wiki/Synthetic_language" title="Synthetic language">synthetic</a>, but that term also includes fusional languages. The agglutinative and fusional languages are two ends of a continuum, with various languages falling more toward one end or the other. For example, <a href="/wiki/Japanese_language" title="Japanese language">Japanese</a> is generally agglutinative, but displays fusion in some nouns, such as <span title="Hepburn transliteration"><i lang="ja-Latn">otōto</i></span><span style="font-weight: normal"> (<span title="Japanese-language text"><span lang="ja"><a href="https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E5%BC%9F" class="extiw" title="wikt:弟">弟</a></span></span>, "younger brother")</span>, from <i>oto</i> + <i>hito</i> (originally <i>woto</i> + <i>pito</i>, "young, younger" + "person"), and Japanese verbs, adjectives, the copula, and their affixes undergo sound transformations. For example, <span title="Hepburn transliteration"><i lang="ja-Latn">kaku</i></span><span style="font-weight: normal"> (<span title="Japanese-language text"><span lang="ja"><a href="https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E6%9B%B8%E3%81%8F" class="extiw" title="wikt:書く">書く</a></span></span>, "to write; [someone] writes")</span> affixed with <span title="Hepburn transliteration"><i lang="ja-Latn">masu</i></span><span style="font-weight: normal"> (<span title="Japanese-language text"><span lang="ja"><a href="https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E3%81%BE%E3%81%99" class="extiw" title="wikt:ます">ます</a></span></span>, politeness suffix)</span> and <span title="Hepburn transliteration"><i lang="ja-Latn">ta</i></span><span style="font-weight: normal"> (<span title="Japanese-language text"><span lang="ja"><a href="https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E3%81%9F" class="extiw" title="wikt:た">た</a></span></span>, past tense marker)</span> becomes <span title="Hepburn transliteration"><i lang="ja-Latn">kakimashita</i></span><span style="font-weight: normal"> (<span title="Japanese-language text"><span lang="ja">書きました</span></span>, "[someone] wrote", with the <i>-mas-</i> portion used to express a politely distanced social context to the intended audience)</span>. A synthetic language may use morphological agglutination combined with partial usage of fusional features, for example in its case system (e.g., <a href="/wiki/German_language" title="German language">German</a>, <a href="/wiki/Dutch_language" title="Dutch language">Dutch</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Persian_language" title="Persian language">Persian</a>). </p><p>Persian has some features of agglutination, making use of prefixes and suffixes attached to the stems of verbs and nouns, thus making it a synthetic language rather than an analytic one. Persian is an SOV language, thus having a head-final phrase structure.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Persian utilizes a noun root + plural suffix + case suffix + post-position suffix syntax similar to Turkish. For example the phrase "<i>mashinhashunra niga mikardam</i>" meaning 'I was looking at their cars' lit. '(cars their at) (look) (i was doing)'. Breaking down the first word: <i>mashin</i> (car) + <i>ha</i> (plural suffix) + <i>shun</i> (possessive suffix) + <i>ra</i> (post-positional suffix) becomes <i>Mashinhashunra.</i> We can see its agglutinative nature and the fact that Persian is able to affix a given number of dependent morphemes to a root morpheme, mashin (car). <a href="/wiki/Turkish_language" title="Turkish language">Turkish</a>, too, is generally agglutinative, forming words in a similar manner: <i>araba</i> (car) + <i>lar</i> (plural) + <i>ın</i> (possessive suffix, performing the same function as "of" in English) + <i>a</i> (dative suffix, for the recipient of an action, like "to" in English) forms <i>arabalarına</i> (lit. "to their cars"). However, these suffixes depend upon <a href="/wiki/Vowel_harmony" title="Vowel harmony">vowel harmony</a>: doing the same to <i>ev</i> ("house") forms <i>evlerine</i> (to their houses). However, there are other features of the Turkish language that could be considered fusional, such as the suffixes for the simple present tense.

But since agglutination can arise in languages that previously had a non-agglutinative typology, and it can be lost in languages that previously were agglutinative, agglutination as a typological trait cannot be used as evidence of a genetic relationship to other agglutinative languages.
