what is the prefix or suffix for easy
Answers
Answer:
about prefix and suffix
Explanation:
a prefix is a letter or a group of letters that is added before a word to form a new word e.g. in+comparable = im comparable.
A prefix for the word easy is "un" : un + easy = uneasy
A suffix for the word easy is "ly" : easy + ly = easily
Prefixes are syllables or groups of syllables that are added to the beginning of a word or a root word stem in order to change the meaning of the word. Prefixes allow for the emergence of new words that are universally understood and increase the complexity of the English language.
In this case adding the prefix "un" changes the meaning of the word easy and makes it its antonym.
Other examples of the prefix "un":
un + comfortable = uncomfortable
un + tidy = untidy
un + leash = unleash
In order to create a new word or alter the grammatical function (or part of speech) of an existing word, a suffix is a letter or set of letters that are appended to the end of the word.
You can better understand the meanings of unfamiliar words by becoming familiar with the common suffixes. When a suffix is added, a root or foundation word's spelling might occasionally alter.
In this case adding the suffix "ly" changes the meaning of the word easy and makes it an adverb.
Other examples of the suffix "ly" :
serious + ly = seriously
home + ly = homely
short + ly = shortly
