Keeping up in class

WOW!  Very informal to start off a sentence/ paragraph like that, but I just wanted to express my emotion after linguistics class this morning.  Let me just remind myself and others to which this applies: "reading the material before hand helps you to keep up with the class discussions.  No ifs, ands or buts; just the fact of life".  Today we continued our discussion from Tuesday on morphology.  We talked a little bit about the different types of transformations occurring with the addition of a morpheme or morphemes to the beginning or the end of a root word.  Processes such as suppletion, cliticization, reduplication etc.  To be continued...  I have to download my Quest Atlantis application.
