Linguistics Assignment
Your task for this assignment is to identify morphemes and phonemes within a text. For the first half
you'll need to identify the morphemes in the text that follows. Begin by separating morphemes with
slashes then list all the morphemes and classify them as free or bound. Keep in mind that free
morphemes must be related to the original word. For example "firetruck" consists of two
free morphemes "fire" and "truck," but "some" is a single
morpheme despite the fact that "so" and "me" could be considered individual
free morphemes. This is because the meaning of "some" is not based on the morphemes
"so" and "me."
Some gentlemen dined at an economical restaurant. They found the service to be unacceptable and

brought the leftovers home to their dog who resided in a doghouse in the backyard.
For the next portion, identify all the phonemes in the text that follows. Write your answer in the
International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA).
