Abstract

Abstract: This is a report on a morpheme study conducted with learners of English as a foreign language in Poland. The accuracy order of 11 morphemes obtained from the study was correlated with three other accuracy orders reported for English as a second language. Although the correlations showed some degree of similarity between foreign‐ and second‐language accuracy orders, no definitive conclusions could be drawn from them because of the shortcomings of morpheme research methodology. Some of these shortcomings are discussed and some suggestions for future research are offered.
