Answer 2

A base word can stand alone and has meaning (for example, help). A suffix is a word part added to the end of a word (for example, -ful). ... A prefix is a word part added to the beginning of a word or base word (for example, un-). If the prefix un- is added to helpful, the word is unhelpful.
