A Dictionary of Prefixes, Suffixes and Combining Forms
Hi everyone!!!
Maybe the majority of you don't know but about two classes ago we have a discussion in class about prefixes and suffixes. We discussed how important they are to improve our vocabulary for the CPE papers. Then someone asked if anyone had a list of the main preffixes and suffixes in the English language.
So... today I found a great tool related to that. It's not a list, but a dictionary of prefixes and suffixes.
I tried to post the PDF file, but I couldn't once I don't know how to post written files from my computer to the blog. So I'm posting the link to all of you - who wish - download it.
As we have class today, I'm going to ask Levi how to post the file itself. If this possibility is available I'll post it very soon.
