Sushi: Borrowing; It was formed since the word was borrowed from Japan. 3.

(5 points) Morpheme Analysis: 1. en-courage-ment a. en- bound, derivational b. courage- free c. ment- bound, derivational d. The root is “courage”. By adding the prefix “en-” to the root “courage”, we get the word “encourage.” The morphological process involved is called derivation. By adding the suffix “- ment” we get the word “encouragement.” The morphological process involved is called derivation. 2. height-en a. height- free b. en- bound, inflectional c. The root is “height.” By adding the suffix “-en” we get the word “heighten.” The morphological process involved is called inflection. 3. anti-soviet-ism a. anti- bound, derivational b. soviet- free c. ism- bound, derivational d. The root is “soviet”. By adding the prefix “anti-” to the root “soviet”, we get the word “anti-soviet.” The morphological process involved is called derivation. By adding the suffix “-ism” we get the word “anti-sovietism.” The morphological process involved is called derivation. 4. bi-annual-ly a. bi- bound, derivational b. annual- free c. ly- bound, derivational d. The root is “annual”. By adding the prefix “bi-” to the root “annual”, we get the word “bi-annual.” The morphological process involved is called derivation. By adding the suffix “-ly” we get the word “bi-annually.” The morphological process involved is called derivation.

5. read-ing-s ( hint - start with the root word " read " and then think about how the final word is a noun since it's plural) a. Read- free b. ing- bound, derivational c. s- bound, inflectional d.
