| Affix type | Example word | Affix |
|---|---|---|
| Prefix (ቅድመ ዐምድ) | ከታች | ከ- |
| Infix (ውስጠ ዐምድ) | ሰፋፊ | -ፋ- |
| Suffix (ድህረ ዐምድ) | ቤታቸው | -ኣቸው |
When you use it
Reach for this when you need to recall which example in the chapter shows a prefix, an infix or a suffix.
Watch out
Students most often miss the infix. -ፋ- sits inside ሰፋፊ, so it is neither at the beginning nor at the end of the word.
