More than half of English words come from Latin, and another 5% come from Greek. These
words are formed by taking a Greek or Latin root and adding prefixes, suffixes or both. A
root is a word from which other words are formed. Some roots can stand as words all by
themselves. Others always need prefixes or suffixes added to them. When you know the
meaning of Greek and Latin roots, you can use them to figure out the meanings of words.
For example, aqua is a root word that means "water." -Tic is a suffix that means "relating to
or characterized by." So, aquatic means "living or found in or near water" or "of or relating
to things that live in or near water." A fish is an aquatic animal.
According to the text, what is true about roots?
A
They cannot be linked to prefixes and suffixes.
B
They are all Greek.
They can help you figure out the meanings of words.
D
They can never stand on their own
