3. Morphemic Analysis:

• Prefix: be- (Germanic origin, often functioning as a verbal prefix indicating action or process - though here it's part of the root)
• Root: taling (related to tale 'to speak', 'to count', indicating the act of calculating or reckoning)
• Suffixes:
  • -ing (verbal noun suffix, forming a noun from a verb - Germanic origin)

• Compound Word Rule: Connecting vowels (-s-) create separate syllables.
