Multiply your vocabulary

Our learning focus tip for this week is SUFFIXES. Like many other languages, the English language uses suffixes, added to the end of a root word, to change its meaning.

If you know how to use suffixes you can create several different words using the same root word, thus multiplying your vocabulary. Let’s take the word “real” for example: 

  • real
  • really
  • realise
  • realisation
  • realisable
  • realistic
  • realism
  • realness
  • realist
  • reality
