3. Morphemic Analysis:

• Root: stitut- (Latin, from instituere meaning "to establish, set up") - the core meaning of establishing or founding.
• Suffix: -sjon- (Nynorsk/Scandinavian, derived from Latin -tio) - nominalizing suffix, forming a noun from a verb.
• Suffix: -alisere- (French/Latin influence, via Scandinavian languages) - verbalizing suffix, creating a verb meaning "to make something institutional."
