Question

which phrase describes a base word? (1 point)
○ an affix placed at the end of a word
○ a complete word that is part of another word
○ a word part that has a meaning from another language
○ an affix placed at the beginning of a word

Explanation:

A base word is a complete word that can stand alone and also be part of a longer word (by adding prefixes or suffixes). An affix at the end is a suffix, an affix at the beginning is a prefix, and a word part from another language is a root (but not necessarily a complete base word).

Answer:

a complete word that is part of another word
