What comes after a base word?

There are a few things that can come after a base word, depending on what you're asking!

Here are a few possibilities:

1. Suffixes: These are letters or groups of letters that are added to the end of a base word to change its meaning or grammatical function. For example:

* Base word: "happy"

* Suffix: "-ness"

* New word: "happiness"

2. Prefixes: These are letters or groups of letters that are added to the beginning of a base word to change its meaning. For example:

* Base word: "happy"

* Prefix: "un-"

* New word: "unhappy"

3. Other words: A base word can be followed by other words to form a phrase or sentence.

* Base word: "run"

* Other words: "quickly," "around the block," "to the store"

4. Endings: In some cases, a base word might be followed by a specific ending, such as a question mark or an exclamation mark.

* Base word: "hello"

* Ending: "?"

* New word: "hello?"

To give you a more precise answer, please tell me:

* What kind of word are you thinking of? (noun, verb, adjective, etc.)

* What are you trying to do with the base word? (change its meaning, make it plural, etc.)
