E. Discussing new concepts and
practicing new skills #1

What I Need To Know

Root words are the basic words to which

affixes (prefixes and suffixes) are added to
form a new word.
(pupils eagerly listen)
For example:
1. Biology: bio
2. Aquarium: aqua
3. Children: child
4. Submarine: marine
5. Action: act

The ideal way to use root words is to

produce multiple words based on the
same root.

For example:
 Demophobia
- People who fears public
speaking
 Zoophobia
- People fear animals
 Gynophobia
- A person who dislikes
girl/women
 Androphobia
- People who have a fear of
men
 Catoptrophobia
- The fear of mirrors.

Phobia
What is the root word used of these
words?
Fear of an object, place, situation, feeling or
What do you mean of phobia? animal.

Excellent!
