The suffix of capable is the able part of the word. And the prefix of capable is the cap part in the word. Capable is one of the only words without a root word/base word because of that it has like every word a prefix at the beginning and a suffix at the end. You would use able in a sentence like this:are you able to work and if you used the whole word it would be I am capable of doing my homework. Capable,able or cap(like a hood)in many different ways.
