What is the smallest unit of sound that has meaning?
a phoneme
Is r a separate phoneme or is it joined to another phoneme?
This varies according to accent. A phoneme is a speech sound, and in some accents, the r is strong, so it is a separate phoneme. For example, in the word "word" there are three phonemes - w / or / d but this is where the differentiation between accents may come in to play. In some accents of the US, the r would be pronounced quite strongly, and be considered its own phoneme, whilst in England and Australia, the r is a very weak sound, and becomes part of the or phoneme.

What is the relationship between morpheme and phoneme?
A morpheme is a distinctive sound in speech. A phoneme is a set of morphemes which actually change meaning. For example if we in English take the sound "r" and consider making it longer "rrr" we could, if we pay attention, agree it is a different sound. It is a different morpheme. But if someone speaks like that it would just be an accent, it would not actually change the meaning. They are different morphemes but the same phoneme.
What is allophone?

Say a word and then say it again without the initial (farm > arm)or ending (farm > far) sound.■ Phoneme substitution.
