Prefixes and Suffixes

The video tutorial explains the concept of affixes, focusing on prefixes and suffixes. It describes how prefixes like 'mis' and 'sub' alter the meanings of root words, with examples such as 'misbehave' and 'submarine'. Similarly, suffixes like 'less' and 'en' modify word meanings, as seen in 'speechless' and 'wooden'. Understanding these affixes aids in deciphering unfamiliar words, enhancing reading and writing skills.
