DICTIONARY OF MORPHEMES
(Memorial to MYLADY ESTHER (1920-2000), devoted language teacher)

The basic units of oral/written language are not the phonemes or the graphemes, but the morphemes. (The word "unladylike" involves 10 graphemes/letters, but 9 phonemes, with unpronounced "e"; 4 syllables: "un-la-dy-like"; but 3 morphemes: "un-lady-like". However, "dogs" is 1 syllable, but 2 morphemes: "dog-s".)

This is, usually, not explained to students. Apparently, no morphemic dictionary exists, until now.
