Who can give me the right answer? In the English speaking countries, which is right, "today morning" or "this morning"? Please help me.

Although English is not my mother language. But I am quite sure that it should be "this morning" rather than "today morning". It is just like they call "tonight" rather than "this night". I love China

"This morning" is correct. Occasionally you might hear 'today morning' used emphatically to mean 'this very morning' but it is incorrect (and most people who use it this way know it to be incorrect but use it this way in order to make their idea 'stand out'). You can only safely use a language incorrectly if you are VERY sure that you can use it correctly (and if you are sure that your audience understand what you are doing).

This morning is correct. Today means the whole day and cannot be split into parts.

it's "this morning". using "today morning" on the other hand seem to be grammatically incorrect. however, when you use "today"(disregarding the "today" word) in a sentence, it may mean somehow similar to that of "this morning" but to some extent. for example, using "today" in a sentence could mean the entire day, except ofcourse the night time(tonight). using "this morning" only covers the morning times and not exceeding any further. i hope this helped. see you around!
