 '''Subwords''' (SBW) are structures that do not have independent existence in the language and only appear together with other morphemes to form a lexeme.

 Classical compounds ("agriculture", "photograph") and their derivations ("agricultural", "photographically") are to be treated as simple words if they do not include more than one free morpheme. Phrasal verbs ("give in", "come across") are treated as multiword expressions.

			In some languages, a given inflection may assume different forms. In Arabic, for instance, the word 'elephant' has three plural forms, as indicated below:
			*PLR:=فِيَلة;
			*PLR&ALT1:=فُيُول;
			*PLR&ALT2:=أفْيال;
			Alternative forms are to be indicated by the attribute ALT, if there is one single alternative form, or ALT1, ALT2 and ALT3, in case there are more than two alternative forms.
