Syntax and morphology are two distinct disciplines within linguistics. Syntax focuses on the arrangement and structure of words to create meaningful phrases and sentences, while morphology is concerned with the formation and internal structure of words. Syntax deals with how words combine to form sentences, while morphology looks at how words are formed through prefixes, suffixes, and other morphemes.

Morphology in linguistics is the study of how words are formed and their structure. It includes categories such as inflectional morphology (changes within a word to indicate grammatical features like tense or number) and derivational morphology (creation of new words through affixation or other processes). Other categories include compounding (joining multiple words to create new ones) and suppletion (irregular forms that don't follow regular morphological rules).

Theoretical linguistics is the study of phonology, morphology, syntax and semantics. Applied linguistics is linguistics put to practical use such as the study of language in the brain, translation, second language learning, studying linguistics in social settings, and many other such uses.

Morphology is used in linguistics. It's where how words are made, formed, shaped, and displayed are studied. It studies pictures used as words as well.

study of the mechanical and evolutionary relationships of morphology to behavior.
