Here we gonna discuss the way words can be altered to create new meanings.
Morphological
The morphological ways of marking a word are often referred to under the collective term affixes. There are lots of different types of affixes and we'll look at some of the most common ones here.
Prefixes and Suffixes
Prefixes and suffixes are small word fragments that are added to the beginning or end of a word in order to change its meaning. Prefixes are added to the beginning of a word and suffixes are added to the end.
Example:
Канне(dog) with the nominative plural suffix -ы becomes Канны(dogs)
Амбуляре(walk) with the 3rd person singular present tense suffix -ат becomes Амбулат(walks)
