23. Vocabulary Workshop Knowing prefixes and suffixes can also assist in the process. prefixes and suffixes are called affixes because they are attached to a root. http://www.southampton.liunet.edu/academic/pau/course/webesl.htm

Preparation for an American University Program Vocabulary Workshop Roots Prefixes Suffixes Vocabulary ... Exercises Vocabulary: Roots, Prefixes and Suffixes Most words used in the English language today were not originally English. These words were borrowed (taken) from other languages. The majority of English words have Latin or Greek origins. When taking the TOEFL* (Test of English as a Foreign Language), it is helpful to know some of these origins or "roots" of English vocabulary. It may be possible to guess the meaning of an unknown word when one knows the meaning of its root. Knowing prefixes and suffixes can also assist in the process. An English word can consist of three parts: the root , a prefix and a suffix . The root is the part of the word that contains the basic meaning (definition) of the word. The root is the base element of the word. A prefix is a word element that is placed in front of a root. A prefix changes the word's meaning or makes a new word. A suffix is a word element that is placed after the root. The suffix changes the word's meaning as well as its function (use). Prefixes and suffixes are called affixes because they are attached to a root.

For several hundred years after the Norman invasion, French was the language of court and polite society in England. It was during this period that many French words were borrowed into English. Linguists estimate that some 60% of our common everyday vocabulary today comes from French. Thus many Latin words came into English indirectly through French. Many Latin words came into English directly, though, too. Monks from Rome brought religious vocabulary as well as Christianity to England beginning in the 6th century. From the Middle Ages onward many scientific, scholarly, and legal terms were borrowed from Latin.

Scientific Prefixes and Suffixes By Joni Driscoll This handy list of prefixes and suffixes can be used to help students understand the meaning of scientific words and build their vocabulary. Assign a group of prefixes and suffixes, print them, and pass activity sheet to students. Ask students to comb through the readings you assign and find several examples of scientific words and terms that contain Latin prefixes and suffixes. Students then define the words they find and compile lists of relevant terms for study. Have a word scavenger hunt, with students foraging through newspapers, magazine articles, etc., to see who can find the most examples of prefixes and suffixes you assign for the day. If students have access to the Internet, another option is to assign readings (or words or terms) and ask students to search through the prefixes and suffixes given below. They should try to formulate definitions of the given terms by understanding the meanings of the prefixes and suffixes. Directory: a-b

Speaking of Language Latin and Greek Word Elements English is a living language, and it is growing all the time. One way that new words come into the language is when words are borrowed from other languages. New words are also created when words or word elements, such as roots, prefixes, and suffixes, are combined in new ways. Many English words and word elements can be traced back to Latin and Greek. Often you can guess the meaning of an unfamiliar word if you know the meaning. A word root is a part of a word. It contains the core meaning of the word, but it cannot stand alone. A prefix is also a word part that cannot stand alone. It is placed at the beginning of a word to change its meaning. A suffix is a word part that is placed at the end of a word to change its meaning. Often you can guess the meaning of an unfamiliar word if you know the meaning of its parts; that is, the root and any prefixes or suffixes that are attached to it.

The Internet TESL Journal By William Pittman dselbyfing [at] yahoo.com Nagasaki University Faculty of Environmental Studies (Nagasaki, Japan) Introduction Are you looking for an element of English language study that is utilized in every aspect of language usage? Are you frustrated that vocabulary building in textbooks is limited to memorization of individual words? Would you like to systematize vocabulary building so that your students can continue to learn vocabulary once they are out of your class? If this is the case with you, I recommend the study of prefixes roots and suffixes. This is not a single class exercise, nor a single lesson plan. It is an introduction to the most utilized word parts that, in their many combinations, make up 50% of the English language. It requires perseverance, but is rewarded by students who are grateful that they have become comfortable with the ability to recognize words they are not immediately familiar with. And confidence with vocabulary goes a long way in reading, writing, listening, speaking, and with standardized test-taking. Purpose English vocabulary is enormous and grows steadily with technological and cultural assimilations. The vast majority of the new words introduced, and a great percentage of the words used to express abstract ideas, are complex words that are made up of simple word parts (prefixes, roots, and suffixes) that have their own definitions and, when familiar to the student of English, can be understood in context without an exact definition. This is the foundation of the system which I present to my students. By slowly and steadily studying the most prominent prefixes, roots, and suffixes, students can acquire a vocabulary that is far greater than the sum of its parts.
