英文单词带后缀
有关英语单词的后缀（suffix）
后缀是一个字母或一组字母，附加在一个单词的末尾，以形成一个新词或改变单词的语法功能(或词性)。例如，通过添加后缀-er，动词read变成了名词reader。类似地，通过添加后缀-able, read变成了形容词readable。
Understanding Suffix Meanings
了解常见后缀的意思可以帮助你理解你遇到的新单词的意思。在某些情况下，添加后缀后，根或基词的拼写会发生变化。例如，在以y结尾且前面有辅音的单词中(如名词beauty和形容词ugly)，当添加后缀时(如形容词beautiful和名词ugliness)， y可能会变成i。在以不发音的-e结尾的单词中(如use和adore)，当添加的后缀以元音开头时，末尾的-e
和所有的拼写规则一样，也有例外。并非所有后缀都可以添加到所有根。例如，形容词beautiful是在名词beauty后面加后缀-ful，而名词ugliness是在形容词ugly后面加后缀-ness。
还要注意后缀可能有不止一个意思。例如，在形容词和副词中，-er后缀通常表示比较级含义(如形容词kinder和longer)。但在某些情况下，以-er结尾的词也可以指做特定动作的人(如dancer 或 builder)或住在特定地方的人(New Yorker 或a Dubliner)。
