- Affix: An affix is a linguistic term referring to a morpheme (a meaningful linguistic unit) that is added to a word, either before (prefix) or after (suffix) its base form, to change its meaning or function.
- Prefix: A prefix is an affix that is added to the beginning of a base word to modify or alter its meaning. It usually changes the word's grammatical or semantic characteristics.
- Root: A root is the main morpheme of a word that carries its core meaning. It is usually a standalone word, to which other affixes (prefixes or suffixes) can be added.
- Suffix: A suffix is an affix that is added to the end of a base word to modify or change its meaning. It typically affects the word's grammatical function or tense.
