Question

short note for suffix and prefix

Answer 1

Letters added to the end of a main word are called suffixes. Common suffixes are: 'ed', 'ful', 'ly', 'ing', 'able', 'ance', 'ence', 'ness'.


Prefixs are added to the beginning of a word to make a new word, eg mis+take. Some common prefixes are 'mis', 'dis', 're', 'for', 'anti', 'ante', 'sub', 'un' and 'in'. New words are made by placing a prefix in front of a word. It is helpful to know the meanings of prefixes. Prefix 're' means again, therefore reappear means to appear again.

Answer 2

Suffixes are a letter or group of letters which is added at the end of the word and changes its meaning.
Prefixes is a letter or a group of letters which is added before a word and bring change in it.
