3 Adverbs
01 Prefixes
is a group of letters placed before the root of a word. For example, the word “unhappy”
consists of the prefix “un-” [which means “not”] combined with the root (or stem) word
“happy”; the word “unhappy” means “not happy.” The idea of using prefixes is to give a
noun the opposite meaning.

Suffixes

Suffixes
A suffix is a group of letters
placed after the root of a word.
For example, the word flavorless
consists of the root word “flavor”
combined with the suffix “-less”
[which means “without”]; the word
“flavorless” means “having no
flavor.”
These are also used to change the
meaning of the words.

Adverbs
03
We use adverbs to add more
information about a verb, an
adjective, another adverb, a clause
or a whole sentence and, less
commonly, about a noun phrase. You
can use them before a verb or at the
end of a sentence.
Adverbs have many different
meanings and functions. They are
especially important for indicating
the time, manner, place, degree and
frequency of something.
We might refer to them by using the
WH question HOW or HOW OFTEN.
Let’s give it a try!
