DECODING THE MEANINGS OF WORDS

Recognizing common prefixes, suffixes, and roots of words can be a useful tool in deciphering a word's meaning as well as its part of speech. Take the verb tener. While you should know that it means "to have," it also is the equivalent in English of -tain, as in "entertain." If you begin by identifying a word's root and then determining if a prefix or suffix has been added, you will quickly start to assimilate new words into your active vocabulary. Consider how many new words can be formed just by adding a different prefix to the verb tener:

entretener:

to entertain

mantener:

to maintain

detener:

to detain

retener:

to retain

obtener:

to obtain

contener:

to contain

sostener:

to sustain

abstener:

to abstain

Words that end in these suffixes are nouns:

-ción = -tion:

la construcción

-ador = -ator:

el dictador

-encia = -ence, -ency

la apariencia, la residencia

-fía = -phy:

la bibliografía

-ismo = -ism:

el capitalismo

-io = -ium:

el medio

-dad, -tad = -ty

la universidad, la libertad

Words that end in these suffixes are adjectives:

-oso = -ous:

generoso

-ivo = -ive:

pasivo

-cial = -tial:

parcial

-az = -acious:

locuaz

-orio = -ory:

obligatorio

-ente = -ent:

evidente

Words that end in –mente are adverbs:

-mente = -ly:

apasionadamente, francamente

Additionally, many adverbs in Spanish are formed by adding prepositions (de, con, a) to nouns or adjectives:
