Root Word
• A root word is a word in its simplest
form.
• A root word has nothing added to it.
• A root word has no prefix or suffix —
it's the most basic part of a word.

word
• Divided in two form :
1. Prefix
2. Suffix

• Prefixes are syllables that is added to
the beginning of a root word
• Prefixes combine with words to create
new meanings.
1. Pre + View = Preview (first look)

the meaning of a
word.

What Are Suffixes?
• Suffixes are syllables that is added to
the end of a root word
• Suffixes combine with words to create
new meanings.
1.Turn + ed = Turned (in the past)

A suffix also
changes the
meaning of a word.

Randy’s bike tire was
flat. He couldn’t find the
pump because the garage
was in disorder. “It’s
hopeless,” said Randy.
“I’ll never make it to the
soccer game on time.”
“That’s nonsense,”
said his brother Jake.
“You can use my bike.”
“Gee, thanks,” said
Randy, hopping on the
bike.
“See, I can be likable!”
said Jake with a grin.
