James Madison University
|
Instructions: [This assignment will be marked only as an acceptable or unacceptable effort.]
- From your textbook, do the last three words (4-6) of Exercise 6 on page 83 and do Exercise 7 on page 85. Give careful thought to the right hierarchical relations. Then do the same for these additional words:
- nonsmoker
- impractical
- informality
- rewrote
- millionaires
- Find two examples not mentioned in our text (or in class) of words resulting from any one of the following processes: blends, acronyms, or functional shifts.
- Read about allomorphs and morphophonological rules in your textbook and attempt Exercise 17 on page 99. (You can just write out the rule rather than trying to use rule notation! :) )
