If you remove the affixes from the word immovable, what is the definition of the remaining root? A. to be easygoing B. to be stubborn C. unable to advance D. to advance

OpenStudy (kyanthedoodle):

Well you know what "immovable" without the "im." What does it mean?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Immovable means you can't move it. Without the im it means you can move it

OpenStudy (kyanthedoodle):

So...? Which one is it do you think?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

D?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Are you guessing?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Inncorrect

OpenStudy (kyanthedoodle):

How is that incorrect?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Doesnt it mean to be stubborn cause you cant move it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No

OpenStudy (kyanthedoodle):

How does that make any sense?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

advanced, advancing. 1. to move or bring forward: The general advanced his troops to the new position.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Stubborn means something else. Without the Affix "Im" the word creates the word Movable

OpenStudy (kyanthedoodle):

http://www.thesaurus.com/browse/movable I'm sorry, but do you see stubborn on there?
