Prefix and Suffix to Form Verb
Halo, Kiseki English students,
How are you feeling today? You feel better after some days
off from school? Or the opposite you feel bored to hell until you want to go
out somewhere? Well, you’re not alone. But remember, this pandemic is not over
yet. Just try t find something fun you can do at home with family.
Masih ingat dengan materi minggu lalu tentang NegativePrefix for Verb and Noun? Nah, kali ini kita akan membahas tentang Prefix dan
suffix to form verb, atau awalan dan akhiran untuk membentuk kata kerja.
Maksudnya adalah kita bisa menambahkan Awalan atau akhiran pada kata dasar,
apakah itu adjective atau noun untuk menjadikan kata tersebut menjadi kata
kerja. Seperti misalnya rich, kata sifat ditambahkan en sebagai prefix, menjadi
enrich dan membuat kata sifat ini menjadi kata kerja. Dari kaya menjadi
memperkaya.
Ada 1 prefix dan 3 suffix untuk membentuk kata kerja yang
akan kita bahas kali ini. Yuk, kita bahas satu persatu.
