No, not all words have to have a prefix or suffix. Some words, known as root words, exist on their own without any added affixes. Prefixes and suffixes are just one way that words can be modified or transformed.
"Gastrointestinal" has one prefix "gastro-" and one suffix "-al."
Suffixes, prefixes, and root words all have different definitions and meanings. So if you put all the meanings of each one in a word you can discover the definition of a word. It all has to do with the way words are constructed and how each part has a different meaning so you can find one whole definition. I hope that makes sense!
Gratefully- is one word with the suffix of fully.
Arranged already has the suffix -ed, so you cannot add a suffix to it. One prefix you could add is re-, forming the word rearranged.
There are many words with both a suffix and a prefix. Here is one: unacceptable.
this is random but sour!
The suffix is "-able" (test is one of the root words). The common words are: contestable detestable incontestable intestable testable uncontestable
Podiatry is one.
Some common suffixes that can be added to "maple" include "syrup," "leaf," and "wood." Prefixes such as "mini," "super," and "ultra" can also be used with "maple" to create new words or phrases.
'Parishion' is an obsolete word, but does qualify. It means the same as parishioner.
Alright, root words are basically words that have a prefix or a suffix on them to make a new work. Prefix - something that comes before the word, as in "un" "im" "a" These words have a prefix - UNintentional, IMmobile, Asexual. Suffix - something that comes AFTER the word, as in "tion" or "i" These words have a suffix - IntercepTION, graffitI So, the "root word" means the word WITHOUT the prefix or suffix. These words are with their prefixes and suffixes ... UNintentional, IMmobile, Asexual. ...And these are the same words without them. Intentional, Mobile, Sexual. Root words are basically words that have no prefixes or suffixes. Hope that helps!
