Presentation of the lesson

What is Root word?.


- A root word from which many words are derived. Kind is a root word from which kindly,
kindness, and unkind are derived.
How about a Prefix?
- A prefix is a syllable or syllables placed before a root word to from a new word. Return
is composed of the prefix re + the word turn. Return means “to turn back or go back.”
Reread is composed of the prefix re + the root word read. Reread means “to read again.”
What is Suffix?
- A Suffix is a syllable or syllables placed before a root word to from a new word. Read is
a root word; reader is composed of the word read + the suffix -er. Reader means “one
who reads.” Act is a root word; actor is composed of the word act + the suffix -or. Actor
means “one who acts.”
Using Prefix:
Some of the commonly used prefixes are as follows:

Example Structural
Meaning Word with Affixes Meaning
Analysis
Anti- Opposing Anticlimax Anti + climax Opposing climax
Circum +
Circum- Around Circumnavigate Navigate around
navigate
Counter- Opposite Counteract Counter + act Opposite act
Dis- Not Disallow Dis + allow Not allow
More than
Extra- More than Extraordinary Extra + ordinary

Inter- Between, among Interisland Inter + island Between islands
Macro +

Mis- Wrongly misinterpret Mis + interpret Wrongly interpret
Post- After Postgame Post + game After the game
Pre- Before Prewar Pre + war Before the war
Opposite of
Un- Opposite of Unskilled Un + skilled
skilled
Suffix:
Suffixes are letters added after the root word to make a new word. There are two ways to add suffixes:
a. Inflectional
Inflection occurs when suffixes are added to a base word that changes its number, tense, degree of
comparison, among others.
The following are example of nflection:

Base Word Suffix Inflection


Tomatoe -es Tomatoes
Walk -ed Walked
Heavy -er Heavier

The singular noun tomato when added -es changes to plural form, tomatoes. The present tense
verb walk when added with -ed changes to its past tense walked. The positive adjective heavy
when added with -er changes to comparative form heavier. Inflection therefore does not affect a
word’s meaning or class, i.e. the base and its inflected words still belong to the same category.
b. Derivational
The derivational function of suffixes happens when new words with new meanings are formed
and a change in semantic meaning or part of speech occurs. The following are examples of derivation:

Base Word Suffix Inflection


Teach -er Teacher
Beautiful -ly Beautifully
Simple -fy simplify

The verb teach when added with -er becomes teacher, a noun. The Adjective beautiful when added with -
ly becomes beautifully, an adverb. The adjective simple when added with -fy becomes simplify, a verb.
Derivation therefore changes the part of speech.
