10. Prefixes and Suffixes: re-, un-, -ful, -less • A root word is the main part of a word. For example, read is a root word. • Prefixes are letters or syllables added to the beginning of a root word. • Suffixes are letters or syllables added to the end of a root word. • When a prefix or suffix is added, a new word with a new meaning is formed.

11. Prefixes and Suffixes • Re- “to do again” • Un- “not” • -ful “full of” • -less “without” • reread: re- comes before the root word read. Adding re- to read makes the new word reread, which means “to read again.” • Knowing the meanings of prefixes and suffixes can help readers know the meanings of words.
