Complete the passage with the help of word formation.
When you open a dictionary, you often come across a lot of unfamiliar words. You might think this is a bit scary. But many of them are formed using other simpler words. This is called word formation.
Words formed by combining other words are called compounds, for example, 1__________ (a friend that you contact by writing, traditionally using a pen) and 2__________ (known by many people).
Prefixes and suffixes often have fixed meanings. If you add un- or in- to a word, the new word usually means the opposite. For example, if something isn’t correct it’s 3__________, and if someone isn’t happy they’re 4__________. Words with the suffixes -ment and -ness are often nouns. For example, if somebody has improved a lot, they have made great 5____________.
penfriend
well-known
incorrect
unhappy
improvement
Complete the passage with the help of word formation.
Some nouns and adjectives can be used as verbs, or the other way round. When we calm somebody down, they become 6__________. And we can give someone a present by 7__________ it.
And sometimes a word is made up of the first letters of several words: “World Trade Organization” can be referred to as 8__________, and 9__________ is short for “as soon as possible”.
It is impossible to know the meaning of every word, but knowing about word formation can help us guess their meanings.
