IS IVE A ROOT,PREFIX,OR SUFFIX

No, "ive" is not a root, prefix, or suffix. It is a standalone word or a part of a compound word.
THAT'S WRONG
I apologize for any confusion. Upon further review, "ive" is actually a suffix in certain cases. It is commonly used to form adjectives from nouns or verbs, indicating a tendency, ability, or quality. For example, "active" (noun) becomes "active" (adjective) with the addition of the suffix "-ive."
