Answer:

Affixes: "in" and "ible"

Definition: "in" means "in," "into" or "not", and "ible" means "capable of being."

Explanation:

Words are composed of one or more morphemes, which are the smallest units of the meaning of a word that can not stand on its own.

The morphemes may be divided into root words (which hold the most basic meaning of a word) and affixes that are divided into two types: prefixes (placed before a root word) and inflections or suffixes (placed at the end of a root word).

The word "inflexible", for example, has the following composition:

  • The prefix "in" that means "not," "in" or "into". In the word "inflexible," "in" means "not."
  • The root word "flex" that means "to bend"
  • The affix "ible" meaning "capable of being."

Therefore, "inflexible" refers to something or someone that is not capable to bend.

The root of the word inflexible is flex, which means that affixes are everything that is added to this root.
Having this in mind, there are two affixes here: a prefix in- and a suffix -ible.              ENGLISH WOOP WOOP Hope this helped

The boy with the yellow hair ran home.<br> a. adjective<br> b. adverb
Mashcka [7]
As for this problem, the answer would be most probably and most likely to be A. adjective.

The sentence that says "the boy with the yellow hair ran home" is a simple sentence. Adjectives describe nouns and pronouns while adverbs describe the verbs, other adjectives, and other adverbs. As you can notice, the yellow would be describing the hair of the boy and the phrase "with the yellow hair" pertains to the boy. So the most probable answer to this question would be A. adjective.

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

The answers are A, B, and E.

Explanation:

In this case, we can see that <u>letter A is correct</u> because Mrs. Flowers mentioned that possibly no one could make the object speak, meaning that it is very important to speak for one's self.

<u>Option B is also correct</u> because she is concerned about how the receiver of the message communicates with others besides only reading.

<u>Letter E is also correct</u><u> </u>because Mrs. Flowers expects the receiver of the message to go beyond reading and apparently she wants her to lear how to use the words in an efficient and good way.
