Abstract

The term Bodo represents the language as well as community. These language speakers belong to Tibeto-Burman group of Sino-Tibetan language family. Word formation is a morphological process whereby new words are created in a language. Word formation is a technical term of word structure. It can be termed as word typology. In Bodo language, there are four types of word formation processes, viz. Inflectional, derivational, compounding and reduplication. Among these four types of processes- derivational, compounding and reduplication are the productive and inflectional is non-productive.
