Sense（1）

(linguistics) The act or process of, or an instance of, morphemizing (becoming, or causing something to become, a morpheme).

Bright (1957), in his Karok grammar (p. 39), cites an example of morphemization in progress. In Karok there is a general phonological rule that the initial consonant of a monosyllabic stem is geminated when in intervocalic position. However, in some themes the initial consonant of such a stem freely varies between being geminated and non-geminated. This variation is evidence of a wavering of the theme between polymorphemic and monomorphemic status.
