由英语单词后缀判定词性后缀是一种重要的构词法,通过后缀常常可以判断出一个词的词性。一个英语单词可以分为三个部分:前缀(prefix),词根(stem)及后缀(suffix)。单词中位于词根前面的部分就是前缀。前缀,可以改变单词的意思。在语言学里,后缀,又称词尾,是一种后置于其他词素后的词缀。后缀-名词解释以英语为例:establish(动词)+-ment(后缀)—establishment(名词):借由后缀-ment的使用,使原本的动词词素转为名词,为语言的衍生,是后缀的一种用途后缀-名词后缀常见的此类后缀及其具体含义如下:1.-ster,-eer,-er(or)意为:从事某种职业或参与某种活动的人(personengagedinanoccupationoractivity)例词:gamester,gangster,songster,engineer,profiteer,mountaineer,auctioneer,driver,teacher,director,actor,professor2.-let意为:小或者不重要的东西(small,unimportantthings)例词:booklet,leaflet,starlet3.-ette意为:1)小的东西(small)例词:cigarette2)假的东西(imitation)例词:leatherette3)女性(female)例词:usherette4.-ess意为:女性(female)例词:actress,poetess,hostess,paintress5.-hood意为:时期(status;etc.)例词:boyhood,childhood,manhood6.-ship意为:才能,状态,资格,品质等(skill,state,condition,status,quality)例词:leadership,friendship,membership,lectureship,sportsmanship7.-ful意为:量(theamountwhichnouncontains)例词:cupful,handful,mouthful,spoonful8.-tion,-ion意为:1)状态,行动等(state;action;etc.)例词:action,oppression,possession,education,starva-tion2)机构等(institution;etc.)例词:organization,foundation9.-ment意为:状态,行动等(state;action;etc.)例词:movement,enslavement,pavement10.-al意为:动作(action)例词:arrival,refusal,revival,recital,removal11.-age意为:程度,数量等(extent;amount;etc.)例词:wastage,coverage,acreage,shrinkage,breakage,hostage912.-ness;-ity(ty)意为:状态,品质(state;quality;etc.)例词:happiness,usefulness,selfishness,kindness,rapidity,activity,sanity,changeability13.-ism意为:道义,主义,学说等(doctrineof,practiceof)例词:idealism,impressionism,absenteeism,racism后缀-动词后缀常见的此类后缀及其具体含义如下:1.-ify意为:转为,变为(toturninto,tomakeorbecome)例词:beautify,diversify,simplify2.-ize;-en意为:使……,变得……(tomakeorbecome;tomakeinto)例词:modernize,popularize,legalize,hospitalize,symbolize,ripen,widen,heighten,threaten3.-ate意为:增加,使……听写(giveoradd,makeorbecome)例词:originate,hydrogenate,validate,differentiate后缀-形容词后缀常见的此类后缀及其具体含义如下:1.-ful意为:充满,有(fullof;hav-ing;giving;etc.)例词:useful,pitiful,hopeful,careful,helpful,forgetful,thankful,fearful2.-less意为:没有,无(without;notgiving)例词:speechless,childless,harmless,hopeless,meaningless,homeless3.-ly意为:有……品质的(havingthequalitiesof)例词:beastly,manly,brotherly,friendly4.-like意为:像……的(like)例词:childlike,statesmanlike,tiger-like5.-y;-ish意为:像……一般的(somewhatlike)例词:meaty,sandy,silky,hairy,leafy,watery,foolish,girlish,blackish,thinnish6.-some意为:像……一样的;引起……的;有……品质的(like;causing;havingthequalityof)例词:troublesome,burdensome,wholesome,tiresome,bothersome7.-able(ible)意为:能……的;可以……的(abletobe;capable)例词:changeable,realiable,readable,drinkable,comfortable,expansible,convincible8.-ed意为:有……的(having,etc.)例词:wooded,pointed,moneyed,odd-shaped9.-al意为:有……属性的,……类型的(natureof,typicalof)例词:cultural,personal,regional,musical10.-ary(ory)意为:属于……的,与……相连的(belongingto;connectedwith)例词:revolutionary,imaginary,contradictory11.-ous意为:富含……的;有……品质的;像……的(fullof;havingthequalityof;like)例词:glorious,erroneous,malicious,gracious12.-ic(ical)意为:……类的;属于……的(typicalof;belongingto)例词:historic,historical,methodic,methodical,dramatic,heroic13.-ive意为:有……属性的;有某种倾向的(havingthenatureorqualityof;givenortendingto)例词:attractive,talkative,restrictive,defensive,preventive,constructive,sensitive后缀-副词后缀常见的此类后缀及其具体含义如下:1.-ly意为:以……方式(ina...manner;etc.)例词:happily,boldly,attentive-ly,strangely2.-ward(s)意为:表示方式或动作的方向(manneranddirectionofmovement)例词:onward(s),backward(s),earthward(s),homeward(s),eastward(s)3.-wise意为:1)按照……方式(inthemannerof)例词:crabwise,clockwise2)就……而言(asfaras...isconcerned)例词:weatherwise,educationwise4.以ly后缀结尾的副词,比较级都是+more,如morecarefully,moreuseful最高级+most如mostcarefully,mostuseful
