Affixes are morphemes that are added to a base word to modify its meaning or grammatical function.This type of affix is rare in English but common in other languages, especially in some Austronesian and African languages.*Reduplication*
Though not a typical affix, some languages use repetition of part or all of a word to convey grammatical meaning such as pluralization, tense, or intensity.- *Example: In Swedish, the interfix *-s- is used in compounds like gatuhus (street house), where gata (street) and hus (house) are combined.- *Example: In English, the prefix *un- in unhappy changes the meaning of "happy" to its opposite. ### 2. *Suffixes*
These are added to the end of a word and often modify the word's grammatical function, such as tense, number, or part of speech. - *Example: In English, the suffix *-ed in walked indicates the past tense of "walk."- *Example: In Tagalog (a Philippine language), the infix *-um- is inserted in the word sulat (write) to form sumulat (wrote).- *Example: In German, the circumfix *ge- -t is added to the verb machen (to make) to form gemacht (made), the past participle.Similarly, in English, a change in stress turns *permit (noun) into permit (verb).They modify the meaning but do not change the word's grammatical category.Circumfixes are found in languages such as German and Arabic.*Simulfixes*
Simulfixes involve a change within the base word itself, without adding a separate affix.### 3.### 4.### 5.### 6.### 7.### 8.
