Guessing the meaning of a word by its formation
When we read and come across new words, we can sometimes guess their meanings by the way they are formed.
当我们阅读中遇到一些生词时,我们有时可以通过他们的构成来猜测词义。
Sometimes two words come together to form a compound word, such as blackboard. Some compounds have a hyphen (-), such as hard-working.
有时两个单词在一起构成合成词,例如 blackboard。有些合成词中有一个连字符“-”,例如:hard-working。

Sometimes a suffix changes a word’s part of speech, but the meaning remains almost the same. Thus, if you know the meaning of the root word, you can guess the meaning of the word, e.g. illness, achievement, energetic, dangerous.
有时后缀改变单词的词性,但其意思几乎不变。因此,如果你知道此单词的词根意思就可以猜测这个单词的意思了,例如:illness, achievement, energetic, dangerous.
Sometimes a prefix or a suffix changes the meaning of a word, e.g. incorrect, dislike, unlucky, homeless.
有时前缀或后缀改变单词的意思,例如:incorrect, dislike, unlucky, homeless。

2. -less是否定后缀,dis-, un-, in-, im-是否定前缀。
3. -able是形容词的后缀,-ly多为副词的后缀。
4. blackboard, hard-working, worldwide等由两个单词构成的复合词,其意思与两个单词有关。
