Any ideas?
OpenStudy (capnkookcx):
Well, not really. Maybe Annual if that's what you mean.
OpenStudy (capnkookcx):
I'm not really good at base words.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Base word: A word usually has three parts to it, they are a root, a prefix and a suffix. It is in the root part of the word that the base element or basic meaning is contained.

The meaning of base word is basically the beginning of a word.
Examples:
re
dis
in
ad
Those are examples and some words that would fit are:
re + wind
dis + count
in + fection
ad + sistance
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So I believe you were correct.
OpenStudy (capnkookcx):
Why do you say that? I don't see a word in annual like the ones in your examples
OpenStudy (anonymous):
No, their are more. I was just listing examples.
OpenStudy (capnkookcx):
So I'm correct on Annual?
