We’re chugging right along in our classical tour of English vocabulary. If you’d like to review, or if you’ve just joined us, here are earlier posts:
Today’s list is pretty short. It has just four items.
Base | Meaning | Example |
ec(o) | environment, home | ecology |
elephan | elephant | elephantine |
enni, annu | year | perennial |
erg | work | ergonomic |
Friendly reminder: these are base words, rather than affixes; these are the foundations onto which affixes are attached.
