Word Parts Working with parts of words – Prefixes, Roots, and Suffixes. Many complex words in English have different parts that help speakers understand their definitions, use, and origins.

Word Parts Prefixes – a series of letters appearing before the root or main part of the word. For example, the word “prefix” has the phrase “pre” before the root “fix.” “Pre” means before.

Word Parts (Roots or Stems) Root – the main part of a word when prefixes or suffixes are attached to it. For example, in the word “malcontent” MAL is the prefix to the root word, CONTENT.

Word Parts - Suffixes Suffix – a series of letters appearing after the root or main part of a word. For example, the phrase “tion” is used to make a verb into a noun, as in how “to revolt” can become “revolution”.

Identify Word Parts 1)Break up a word by syllables. 2)Usually, word parts can be separated according to syllable (at least the affixes). Example: cooperation 1)CO | OP | ER | A | TION

Be Careful with Roots 1)Roots or “stems” often have different spellings than the actual word. 2) Sometimes roots have Latin or Greek origins, which are reflected in their spellings. Example: cooperation

Roots/Stems with Latin or Greek origins Example: cooperation Root/Stem = operate “operate” comes from the Latin, operatus

Sometimes Word Parts Do Not Help Us With... Single syllable words... OR Words that have no identifiable affix or root... OR When words have origins in other languages (French or German)

Sometimes Word Parts Do Not Help Us With... What do we do? How do we determine the meaning of words like: “scope” (Greek origin) TURN AND TALK (2 MIN)
