Please post the question directly next time:

All of the following Persian words consist of two or more morphemes. Isolate the morphemes by circling each separate ‘bound morpheme’. (Note: xar means ‘buy’ and –id designates the past tense.)
Xaridam   = I bought            
Xaridi      = you (singular) bought          
Xarid      = he bought            
Naxaridam   = I did not buy            
Namixaridand   = they were not buying         
Naxaridim   = we did not buy         
Mixarid      = he was buying         
Mixaridid   = you (plural) were buying
Next, try to match each of the following notions with a morpheme in the Persian data.  Then, create a ‘tree diagram’ for each word showing how to build the word up from the free morpheme ‘buy’ to the complete words in the data.
I
You (sg)
You (pl)
We
They
Not
Was/were -ing (continuous)
Finally, use the knowledge have of Persian to try translate the following three English
They are buying.
You (singular) did not buy.
You (singular) were buying.
