Hi all
This forum is for our discussion in initiation 2
Let's discuss about the following matters:
1. the definition of affix
An affix is a morpheme which only occurs when attached to some other morpheme or morphemes such as a root or stem or base
2. the difference between root, stem, and base
A root is a word or word part from which other words grow, through the additions of affixes. When a root morpheme is combined with affix morphemes it forms a stem or word. A base is any unit whatsoever to which affixes of any kind can be added.
3.

b. Identify to which parts of speech does each word belong to before and after the morphological process.
c. Put each word in a sentence.
