    III. Content
    The breaking of parts of a word to determine its meaning is referred to as structural
    analysis. Analyzing the word parts is helpful in improving one’s vocabulary. This practice
    involves a knowledge of AFFIXATION. Affixation necessitates the use of prefixes and
    suffixes, and the study of roots. Prefixes, suffixes, and roots are derived mainly from the Latin
    and Greek languages.
    Prefixes are word parts added at the beginning of a root, while suffixes are those that
    are added at the end.
    Prefixes may indicate numbers. Tri, for example. Means three. If attached to the –
    angle, the word triangle (a shape with three angles) is formed. Prefixes may also indicate the
    opposite of the base word. Dis is a prefix that means NOT. Therefore, if it precedes the word
    obedient and becomes DISOBEDIENT, it implies that the person being described is NOT obeying.
    Some commonly used prefixes are the following:
    Prefix Meaning Example
    Hyper Over Hyperactive
    Circum Around Circumnavigate
    Bene Good Benevolent
    Mal Bad Malnutrition

    1
    Prefix Meaning Example
    de Remove Deactivate
    intra Within Intramurals
    macro Large Macro-management
    auto Self Autobiography
    multi Many Multi-awarded
    semi Half Semi-finals

    Suffixes may determine the function or the tense of a given word.


    Suffixes like -ance, -ence, -dom, -hood, -ment, -ship, and -ness are noun endings.
    Instant (adj) - instance (noun)
    Brilliant (adj) - brilliance (noun)
    Free (adj) - freedom (noun)
    Neighbor (noun) - neighborhood (noun)
    Owner (noun) - ownership (noun)
    Polite (adj) - politeness (noun)
    Suffixes like -ate, -ize, and -ify are indicative of verbs.
    Substance (noun) - substantive (verb)
    Final (adjective) - finalize (verb)
    Solid (adjective) - solidify
    Suffixes like -ful, -ous, -ious, -ate, -en are adjective endings.
    Wonderful
    Momentous
    Industrious
    Legitimate
    Wooden
    IV. Review

    those that are added at the end.
     Suffixes may determine the function or the tense of a given word.
     Suffixes like -ance, -ence, -dom, -hood, -ment, -ship, and -ness are noun
    endings.
