3

4 1. Word roots usually, but not always, indicate the part of the body involved. 2. Combining Forms Created by adding a vowel (usually the letter o ) to the end of a word root. Used when connecting word roots or when the word root is joined to a suffix that begins with a consonant.

5

6 Suffixes usually, but not always, indicate the procedure, condition, disorder, or disease.

7 Prefixes usually, but not always, indicate location, time, number, or status.
