 Hallo!
I have a question- I am looking for an overview of rules for word formation processes in English (like a sheet or sth).. with the most important pre- and suffixes to build adverbs, adjectives, nouns, verbs.. 

It shouldn't be too complicated as  I need it for a E-L2 class ..

I have already searched through the web but with no sucess.. maybe someone has an idea and is able to help me?

 

Thanks a lot in advance!

Hi Steffi - here's a website where one can practice adding suffi xes:  http://www.wisc-online.com/objects/index_tj.asp?objID=ESL2203

 Another website which explains the meaning is cached here:  http://209.85.129.132/search?q=cache:8ZuGgLhFWWoJ:depts.gallaudet.edu/englishworks/reading/suffixes.html+adding+suffixes+make+nouns&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=2&lr=lang_en|lang_fr|lang_de|lang_iw&client=safari

 

Best of luck!
