typICAL
happyNESS…..happILY UNhappyNESS
A suffix is letters added to a base word to change its meaning, such as able, ness, less, ly, these are some of the more common
adding ed is not a suffix, it is an inflected ending.
rewrite, unforgiveable, retype, unhappy, writeable, forgiveness, typeable, happiness, happily
suffix+write=writen
suffix+happy=happiest
prefix(un)+forgive+suffix(in)=unforgivin
The Y changes to an I in this instance.
