===Agglutinating languages===
{{Main|Agglutinative language}}
Agglutinating languages have a high rate of agglutination in their words and sentences, meaning that the morphological construction of words consists of distinct morphemes that usually carry a single unique meaning.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.glottopedia.org/index.php/Agglutinating_language|title=Agglutinating language|website=Glottopedia|access-date=9 December 2018}}</ref> These morphemes tend to look the same no matter what word they are in, so it is easy to separate a word into its individual morphemes.<ref name=":2" /> Morphemes may be bound (that is, they must be attached to a word to have meaning, like affixes) or [[free morpheme|free]] (they can stand alone and still have meaning).

*Swahili is an agglutinating language.<ref name=":2" /> For example, distinct morphemes are used in the verbs' conjugation:
**Ni-na-soma: I-present-read or I am reading
**U-na-soma: you-present-read or you are reading
**A-na-soma: s/he-present-read or s/he is reading
