Answer:
Mathematician
Explanation:
- In English, prefixes and suffixes (collectively called affixes) are words that often alter the meaning of the word by adding two or three alphabets at the beginning or ending respectively.
- The word 'mathematician' refers to a maths expert or specialist.
- Here is the former bunch, the suffix 'Matic' refers to Matos in greek with the meaning willing to.
- Thus when it is said mathematics it shows willingness toward maths (from greek mathema- meaning-to learn)
- So the one who is willing to learn or has an inclination toward maths is said to be a mathematician coming from the rooted greek word 'mathematikos' meaning related to maths. So by adding -ian at the end of the word we can make the suffix.
Hence he wants to be a mathematician when he grows up.
