A prefix is a stem that can be applied to the beginning of words to add a certain meaning, whereas a suffix is applied to the ends of words to add a certain meaning.

For example, a prefix could be <em>un. </em>When you add <em>un</em> to the beginning of a word, it reverses the meaning of said word (such as in unable or unhappy).

A suffix could be <em>-ness. </em>Adding this to the end of a word makes it a noun. For example, foolishness and happiness are words with this suffix.

Hope this helps!
