English Spelling Rules: Adding Prefixes and Suffixes

by Amy Nutt

Knowing proper spelling is very important for a number of reasons. First of all, when words cannot be spoken from our mouths we can write them down. If these words are not spelled properly, then that communication is compromised. Since communicating in writing is very important in many of our jobs, it is important that we know some very important grammar rules. Second, many use writing to write down their ideas. If proper grammar isn’t used, then those who like to write in diaries and journals would not understand what they wrote when reading it years down the road.
