*YES* :-) 

 Since there are many new members, who certainly will never
 wade through the megabytes of archives, here is an old post
 which I found on a very dusty corner of my hard disk (do
 disks have corners?). Oh, do set your mail reader to a Courier
 font, otherwise it won't display properly.
 
 This is one of Boris Viktorovich Sukhotin's decipherment 
 algorithms, which I had adapted from a French translation
 published in T.A. Informations in 1974. My comments are
 in (*...*)

 Such a morphological analysis is conveniently represented by
 a tree (similar to that of immediate constituent analysis), or
 by bracketing, eg.:
 
 
 .1)
 .               .----------------.
 .               |                |
 .               |           .--------.
 .               |           |        |
 .               |       .------.     |
 .               |       |      |     |
 .             .--.   .-----. .----. .--.
 .             |in|   |numer| |abil| |is|
 
 
 2)            ((((in)))(((numer)(abil))((is))))
 
 
 A morphological analysis is of course an operation more complex
 than a partition. It corresponds, however, to a more simple definition
 of a morpheme:
 
     A morpheme is a set of similar strings the intersection of
     which is empty.

*YES* just MIRROR the above and you have "<<<<in>>>>" reversed until
re-mirrorred! (per next encountered gallows glyph (1)....2 1....(2)


best to you & yours
