Hi everyone, just wondering if someone can provide me with some help on this work I have to do as soon as possible as I can't find any information anywhere on how to actually do these.

Basically I have to assign a morpheme structure in the form of a tree diagram for each of these words:

1) Unavailability
2) Denationalization
3) Handpicked
4) Underachievement

I have to include all relevant information.

Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks a million,
David.

@david91,
If you google "morphology tree" you will get some examples.

@david91,
Really!...If you don't even know what NP and VP are about, you are taking the wrong course.

@david91,
Telling you what they are would be doing your home work.

Sorry, try harder...

@david91,
Are you talking about transformational grammar? Good luck, david91. Those must be trees of derivation. I can't believe they're still teaching that. Mad
