I suffissi in inglese sono l’argomento che affronteremo oggi, dopo il post della scorsa settimana dedicato ai prefissi. I suffissi sono particelle che vengono aggiunte alla fine di una parola al fine di cambiarne il significato.<\/strong> Possono essere aggiunti a nomi, verbi, aggettivi e avverbi e sono molto utili per fare bella figura durante gli esami per ottenere le certificazioni<\/a> pi\u00f9 comuni.
