Question How will knowing Latin and Greek word parts ( prefixes, root words, and suffixes) help me to be a better reader?
Word Parts are like puzzle pieces. • The more pieces you know, the more of the puzzle you can complete. • The more word parts you know, the more meanings of words you can figure out. • By learning the common roots and prefixes (and a few suffixes) you will be able to figure out the meaning of MANY new words almost immediately.
Prefix • Pre means before • fix means to fasten or attach • so quite literally a PREFIX IS: • something attached to the beginning of something else
Suffix • Suf is a variant of sub, below or under… • so a SUFFIX IS : • something fastened underneath something else (in this case, behind the root).
