Parsing Practice. The following example words are for parsing practice. For each morpheme in a word: 1. specify the form of the morpheme (the major allomorphs, separated by slashes). 2. below it write the morpheme's meaning or function. (There may be some parts of the word that are linking forms without any meaning.). 3. To complete the parse, we state the actual meaning of the whole word in Modern English. Note that this meaning may be somewhat indirectly related to the component morphemes.
Posted February 16 2015 â 3:53 PM EST. Lesley Gore, a singer best known for her 1960s hit â Itâs My Party ,â has died of cancer, the Associated Press reports. She was 68. Gore released âItâs My Party,â a pop track featuring oft-quoted lyrics like âItâs my party, and Iâll cry if I want to,â in 1963 at the age of 16.
You'll get a lot more kicks with a little bit o' soul. And when your party falls 'cause ain't nobody groovin'. A little bit o' soul and it really starts movin', yeah. And when you're in a mess and you feel like cryin'.
