First, to start, prefixes are letters that are added to the beginning of a word to make the meaning change.
Next, Suffixes are letters that are added to the end of a word to change the tense of the word, (tense as in past tense, future, and present tense).
Last, root words are the original words that don'thave prefixes or suffixes to begin with.
