Prefixes and Suffixes

 

-Prefixes and suffixes are small parts of words that are added to a word to change the meaning.

*Prefixes are added to the beginning of a word.

*Suffixes are added to the end of a word.

*Prefixes and suffixes can be added to nouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs

 

Example:

Prefix

"happy" becomes "unhappy" when you add the prefix "un"
("un-" means "not," so "unhappy" means "not happy")

Suffix

“paint” becomes "painter" when you add the suffix "-er"
("-er" means "person who does something, so “painter” means "the person who paints)
