词缀是派生的一部分The basic part of any word is the root; to it, you can add a prefix atthe beginning and/or a suffix at the end to change the meaning. Forexample, in the word “unflattering,” the root is simply “flatter,”while the prefix “un-” makes the word negative, and the suffix “-ing”changes it from a verb into an adjective (specifically, a participle).English itself does not use prefixes as heavily as it once did, butmany English words come from Latin, which uses prefixes and suffixes (youcan use the word affix to refer either to a prefix or a suffix) quite7extensively. For example, the words “prefix,” “suffix,” and “affix”themselves are all formed from “fix” by the use of prefixes:“ad” (to) + “fix” (attached) = “affix”“pre” (before) + “fix” = “prefix”“sub” (under) + “fix” = “suffix”Note that both the “-d” of “ad” and the “-b” of “sub” change thelast letter.Here are some of the most common Latin prefixes (for the meanings of theLatin roots, look up the words in a good dictionary):ab (away) abrupt, absent, absolvead (to) adverb, advertisement, afflictin (not) incapable, indecisive, intolerableinter (between, among) intercept, interdependent, interprovincialintra (within) intramural, intrapersonal, intraprovincialpre (before) prefabricate, preface preferpost (after) postpone, postscript, postwarsub (under) submarine, subscription, suspecttrans (across) transfer, transit, translateAffixesMorphemes added to free forms to make other free forms are called affixes.There are three principle kinds of affixes:1. prefixes (at beginning) — “un-” in “unable”2. suffixes (at end) — “-ed” in “walked”3. circumfixes (at both ends) — “en—en” in “enlighten”(These always seem to consist of otherwise attested independent prefixesand suffixes.)81 在历史上 in the history of 2 成长 grow up 3 平均为 with an average 4毫无疑问 There’s no doubt of 5 一直 all the time 6 对。
