Carl Morrow · Answer 1

The beautiful girl walked to a park where there were three birds and one brown dog behind the bushes.

Explanation:

Dog: is a free morpheme because it can stand on itself, the morpheme coincides with the notion of the word.

Beautiful: is a bound morpheme made up of a free morpheme (beauty), which is the root, and an affix (-ful). When we add the suffix we are changing the category of the word, beuty is a noun while beautiful is an adjective, so we have a derivational bound morpheme.

Birds: is an inflectional bound morpheme because it is made up of two morphemes, a free morpheme (bird) and a bound morpheme (-s) that is modifying the number of the noun bird.

Bushes: is an allomorph because the pronunciation changes due to the addition of (-es), if we compare this word with the word birds, we can see that they are both plurals but the suffix and the pronunciation of the two differs, while the meaning is still the same more than one, plural.
