A contraction is one word. It is made by putting together two words. One or more letters are missing from the second word. An apostrophe takes the place of the missing letters. did + not = didn’t Notice that the apostrophe takes the place of the o in not. they + are = they’re An apostrophe takes the place of the a in are. Here are some contractions in which two letters are missing: they + will = they’ll An apostrophe takes the place of the wi in will. you + have = you’ve An apostrophe takes the place of the ha in have. cannot = can’t An apostrophe takes the place of the no. The contraction ’s can stand for has or is. You can tell which it is by the context. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen Donna. (It has been a long time since I’ve seen Donna.) There’s a ship in the port. (There is a ship in the port.) The contraction for will not is strange. It is the only one where the first word changes, too. will + not = won’t Never forget to use the apostrophe. If you do, the contraction may look like a different word, as in: shell instead of she’ll were instead of we’re Ill instead of I’ll Contractions Visit www.newpathlearning.com for Online Learning Resources. © Copyright NewPath Learning.

✔ A root word is a word before a prefix or a suffix is added to it. Sometimes root words are called base words. A prefix is a group of letters added to the start of a root word that change its meaning. A suffix is a group of letters added to the end of a root word that change its meaning. In the word incorrect, the root word is correct. The prefix in- means not. This equation is incorrect: 4 x 8 = 34. In the word collectible, the root word is collect. The suffixes -ible or -able added to a word means able to be. A collectible is an item that can be collected, such as comic books. In the word worker, the base word is work. The suffix -er added to the word means a person who. gardener means a person who gardens Be careful with that dish! It’s breakable. (The dish would be easy to break.) In the word nonstick, the root word is stick. The prefix is non-, which means not. Use this nonstick frying pan. The prefix mis- means not. Emily misspoke. (Emily did not say the right thing.) reader means a person who reads Root Words, Prefixes & Suffixes Visit www.newpathlearning.com for Online Learning Resources. © Copyright NewPath Learning.

Plurals A plural shows that there is more than one noun. Usually you just add an s to the end of the noun. book + s = books When the noun ends in a consonant-y, drop the y and add ies. baby + s = babies When the noun ends in ch, o, s, sh, or x, you add es to the end of the noun. bench + es = benches tomato + es = tomatoes kiss + es = kisses dish + es = dishes fox + es = foxes Possessives A possessive shows that someone owns something. Usually when there are two nouns in a row, the first one owns the second. To show possession add an apostrophe s to the end of the first noun, like this: ’s. Jerry’s tablet the dog’s collar If the noun is plural, the apostrophe goes AFTER the s. the girls’ house (There is one house that belongs to two girls.) Some plurals are weird. Luckily there are only a few of these. More than one person is people. More than one goose is geese. the Gildarrys’ car (The car belongs to two people with the same last name. You don’t change the spelling of a person’s last name when you make it plural.) three boys’ comic books (Each of the boys owns at least one comic book.)
