Build New Words© Lyrics
Hey look, here's a cool way to build new words
All you've got to do is start with a root word
Add a prefix or suffix, or both
And your words and meanings can grow and grow
Your words and meanings can grow and grow
A prefix is a word part with a specific meaning at the beginning of a word
A suffix is a word part with a specific meaning at the beginning of a word
A root word is a main part of a word, that contains its core meaning
Let's start with the root word do
Do means perform an action
Add the prefix un to the root word do
And you get the word undo
Undo means cancel or reverse
Undo is the opposite of do
Let's start with the root word care
Care means show concern
Add the suffix less to the root word care
And you get the word careless
Careless means showing no concern
Careless is the opposite of care
Let's start with the root word appear
Appear means to come into sight
Add the prefix dis to the root word appear
And you get the word disappear
Disappear means no longer in sight
Disappear is the opposite of appear
Hey look, here's a cool way to build new words
All you've got to do is start with a root word
Add a prefix or suffix, or both
And your words and meanings can grow and grow
Your words and meanings can grow and grow
Let's start with the root word teach
Teach means give instruction
Add the suffix er to the root word teach
And you get the word teacher
Teacher, means a person who instructs
Teach means give instruction
Let's start with the root word, play
Play means to have fun
Add the prefix re to the root word, play
And you get the word replay
Replay means play again
Play means to have fun
Hey look, here's a cool way to build new words
All you've got to do is start with a root word
Add a prefix or suffix, or both
And your words and meanings can grow and grow
Your words and meanings can grow and grow
