Origin
The term "agglutinative" was first used by the German linguist Wilhelm von Humboldt (1767-1835) in his book "Über die Kawisprache auf der Insel Java" (1836).
Explanation
In agglutinative languages, morphemes are added to each other sequentially without major changes to their form. Each morpheme typically represents a single semantic or grammatical concept. For example, in Finnish, the word "taloissa" (in houses) is formed by combining the noun stem "talo" (house) with the suffix "-issa" (locative case).
Agglutinative languages often have very complex morphology, with words containing many morphemes. This permite them to express a wide range of meanings concisely and to create new words easily.
