Words for Level 3 word part analysis (only Level 3 affixes are separated. The stem must
be a free form. Where the placement of the cut could vary, as with the doubling of
consonants, the cut is made to preserve the form of the affix rather than the stem. For
example, runn/er rather than run/ner, and emerg/ent rather than emerge/nt. If learners make
correct cuts beyond the current level, their answers should be accepted and positively
commented on.)
