Hi everyone! Sorry, I made a mistake in the begining of the video! Please read the correction below:
"Suffixes" are units of language that we add to the END of words, not to the beginning as I said in the video. I meant to say, "affix", which is the general term for "suffix" and "prefix." "Prefixes, of course, are morphemes that we add to the BEGINNING of words to modify their meaning.
Anyway, sorry for the mistake! Click on "CC" for subtitles!
Happy learning!

It means "Ish", but there are a few ways to convey "ish" in Japanese. :)

Hi Meg! Yes! Those are useful too. I noticed that I switch between all of those depending on how easily they roll of the tongue. :)

Awesome! I use "ish" a lot. I also add "ness" or "y" to make nouns and adjectives. :)
