Introduction 

In this course we are going to look at what prefixes and suffixes actually are and think about the different ways we can use these add-ons in our writing.
A prefix is something that you add on to the beginning of a word in order to change the word’s meaning.
There are a number of different prefixes available in the English language and each has its own meaning which then adds to the original meaning of a root word. A root word is a word in its most basic form before anything has been added to it (like a prefix, or even a suffix).
So we can think of prefixes like this:

prefix + root word = new meaning
