Affixes: Prefix, Infix, and Suffix

One way to better understand the meaning behind words is to look at the different parts of each word and understand each part’s meaning separately, like squares in a patchwork quilt. Many English words are made by taking basic words and adding combinations to the beginning or end of the word to change the meaning. The basic word is called the root word, and the added portion is called the affix. There are three main affixes we use: prefixes, suffixes, and infixes.
