Introduction to prefixes and suffixes (-ed vs -ing)

Hello everyone! 😎

Today, we’re diving into prefixes and suffixes in English, specifically focusing on adjectives. Prefixes and suffixes are added to base words to change their meaning or form. For example, the suffix “-ed” often turns verbs into adjectives describing a state or feeling, such as “relaxed” from “relax” and “bored” from “bore.” Meanwhile, the suffix “-ing” turns verbs into adjectives describing ongoing actions or states, such as “relaxing” from “relax” and “boring” from “bore.” Understanding these prefixes and suffixes helps us enrich our language by expressing different qualities and characteristics. Let’s explore this topic together and have some fun learning how to use these suffixes in English! 🌟
