Antidisestablishmentarianism: Morphemic Analysis

Note the colors of the brackets below.  The red brakets enclose the only free morpheme in the word.  Eveything else is a bound morpheme.  The possessive {-s} morpheme is the only inflectional morpheme in the word.  An expression of the analysis in phonetic transcription is also included.  Take note of the dashes in the second expression (it will help you follow the way the bound morphemes are appended to the free morpheme).
