Major class categories are also known as open class categories [contentful].

{Nouns, adjectives, verbs, and adverbs}.

Minor class categories are also known as closed-class categories (function words).

Open class categories can accept new members (You can add new nouns, verbs, etc. to a language).

Closed-class categories, however, don't accept any new members {articles, prepositions, conjunctions, etc.}

True or false: All function words are bound morphemes.

False - because they are free morphemes, but they don't have a lot of content in them (not contentful) - they only add grammatical meaning.
