Many words in the English language can be divided into three parts i.e. Prefix, Stem, Suffix

Prefix: Pre means 'before' and therefore, is what comes before the Stem.

Suffix: A suffix is what attached to the end of the stem.

Stem: The stem of a words is its basic form, the fundamental element which is common to all the other forms of the word.

Example:-

Stem: measure

Suffix: measur(able)

Prefix: (im)measurable A prefix usually changes the meaning of a word while a suffix usually changes its part of speech.
