What is a root word?

English
1 answer:
myrzilka [38]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

A root word means the main word from which other words can be formed.

<u>For eg:</u>

☆<u>From the word "exaggerate" you can create</u>

▪︎overexaggerate

(remember over is prefix here)

▪︎overexaggeration

(over is prefix and ion is suffix)

So the root word here is exaggerate.

☆From the word "agree" you can create

▪︎disagree

(remember <u>dis</u> is <u>prefix</u> here)

▪︎disagreement

(<u>dis</u> is <u>prefix</u> and ment is <u>suffix</u>)

So the root word here is agree.

That means the root word is the word without any prefix and suffix.

Hope you got the concept!
