Looking at the word form
Prefixes appear at the beginning of words and can help you guess a word’s meaning.
Take for example, the IELTS Reading vocabulary word “understory.” The prefix “under”
can be used on its own as a preposition, so this word may describe the position of
something.
Suffixes hint at both the meaning of a word and its part of speech. Take the IELTS
Reading word “geology.” The suffix “-ology” appears at the end of nouns, describing an
academic study or discipline. This word is probably the name of a science.
