Greek and Latin Word Stems Set #1 – Greek Roots English I – 2010-2011

Wait a sec’… What ARE word stems, exactly?! Root: the part of the word that contains the basic or anchor meaning of the word Prefix: a word element that comes before the root. It changes the meaning of the word or creates a new word. Suffix: a word element that comes after the root. It changes the meaning of the word and often the way it is used (i.e., can turn a noun into a verb, a verb into a noun, etc.).
