Read the excerpt from a short story. I stood against the far wall of the shabby lobby avoiding eye contact with the doorman as m

y dad checked us in for the night. We’d hoped to make it as far as scranton, but the weather had interfered, leaving us instead at an eyesore of a truck-stop motel. My ear buds were jammed in as far as comfort would allow in a vain attempt to block out the motel’s vibe. Still, i could not ignore the looming presence of the doorman. He stood in the dim portico, sweeping and re-sweeping a pile of lint on the floor, watching the parking lot with his watery eyes, and occasionally signaling to the whiskered clerk behind the desk.

This is a syllable or word element that can only occur in front of or after a root or stem
Serjik [45]

Answer: Affix.

An affix is a grammatical unit that is attached to a word's stem to form a new word. They are important in English because they are one of the main ways in which the language creates new words.

The two most common ones are: prefixes, which are placed before the stem (ex. pre-, in-, un-) and suffixes, which are placed after the stem (ex. -ly, -ness).
