Please let me introduce myself first, my name is Chayanit, I've just finished Module9 assignment in last minute
After reading Module9, I have a few question
The first: How can I know that 'when' is a conjunction or relative adverb in sentence?
The second: Regarding การซ้ำระดับพยางค์ should I consider -s -es as การซ้ำระดับพยางค์? I'm curious because -s -es is a morpheme either.

Thank you in advance ka

Hello

1. It depends on the usage. "When" as a conjunction is used to say at what time something is happening. For example, we'll leave when you're ready. "When" as a relative adverb is used to refer to a particular time/period. For example, a team of archaeologists found fossils of plants from the Trirassic Era, when Earth's continents were part of a single land mass.

2. The repetition in your example is the repetition of words. It's true that -s -es are plural morphemes but the effect of the repetition is on the word itself, unlike the -er comparative in the textbook example which adds another syllable and creates an effect of such repetition.

I hope this helps.
