Lesson 30<br />

<strong>Generalization</strong>:<br />

Latin Rootts<br />

jec/ject/jac, tract, scribe/script<br />

Roots are meaningful parts <strong>of</strong> words to which affixes (prefixes and suffixes) are added.<br />

Spelling, syllabication, and derivational generalizations are used when adding affixes to<br />

roots.<br />

jec/ject/jac = to throw, hurl, cast tract = pull scribe/script = write<br />

Note: Word roots are bound morphemes. Usually they are dependent and cannot stand<br />

alone without an affix. Base words and root words are free morphemes. They are<br />

independent and can stand alone.<br />
