Affixation is the process of adding an affix, either a prefix or suffix, to a root word to form a new word or change the meaning. There are different types of prefixes that can be added, including negative prefixes like un- and non-, prefixes denoting size like arch- and super-, prefixes indicating attitude like co- and anti-, and locative prefixes showing location like super- and sub-. Suffixation is the specific process of adding an affix to the end of a word, with examples given of improvement and authorship. Prefixation involves adding a prefix to the base or beginning of a word, as seen in co-author.
