Vocabulary skill: suffixes
Si quieres aumentar tu vocabulario rápidamente, uno de los trucos más efectivos es aprender cómo se forman las palabras (word formation). Las palabras en inglés pueden tener prefijos (letras que se añaden al principio de una palabra) o sufijos (al final). Los sufijos pueden cambiar el significado o la función de una palabra. Si conoces los más comunes y cómo usarlos, te será mucho más fácil deducir el significado de una palabra nueva. Además, ampliarás tu vocabulario instantáneamente al crear derivados de las palabras que ya conoces. A continuación te explicamos cómo utilizarlos y los tipos de palabras con sufijos que existen.
Ejemplos de sufijos en inglés para sustantivos
-dom
Se añade a sustantivos o adjetivos para formar otros sustantivos. Por ejemplo:
- King / kingdom (rey / reino)
- Free / freedom (libre / libertad)
-ess / -ine
Para cambiar el género de un sustantivo de masculino a femenino. Por ejemplo:
- Waiter / waitress (camarero / camarera)
- Actor / actress (actor / actriz)
-ful
Este sufijo tiene un significado de "abundancia de algo" y se puede añadir a sustantivos para formar sustantivos o adjetivos. Por ejemplo:
- Flavour / flavourful (sabor / sabroso)
- Wonder / wonderful (maravilla / maravilloso)
-ship
Un sufijo para formar sustantivos abstractos a partir de otros sustantivos. También puede aplicarse a adjetivos y verbos. Por ejemplo:
- Dictator / dictatorship (dictador / dictadura)
- Citizen / citizenship (ciudadano / ciudadanía)
-y
Otro sufijo que indica abundancia y que se puede añadir al final de un sustantivo para formar adjetivos. Por ejemplo:
- Hair / hairy (pelo / peludo)
- Rain / rainy (lluvia / lluvioso)
Ejemplos de sufijos en inglés para adjetivos
-ly
Se añade a adjetivos o a sustantivos para formar adverbios. Por ejemplo:
- Slow / slowly (lento / con lentitud, lentamente)
- Week / weekly (semana / semanal)
-ness
Con este sufijo podemos transformar un adjetivo en un sustantivo. Si el adjetivo termina en -y, se cambia por una -i para poder agregar el sufijo. Por ejemplo:
- Lonely / loneliness (solo / soledad)
- Dark / darkness (oscuro / oscuridad)
- less
Este sufijo puede transformar un adjetivo o un sustantivo en un sustantivo. Al contrario que -ness, indica que la palabra resultante está desprovista de la cualidad que indica la palabra original. Por ejemplo:
- Use / Useless (uso / inútil)
- End / Endless (final / sin final, ilimitado)
Ejemplos de sufijos en inglés para verbos
-able
Para formar adjetivos a partir de verbos. Por ejemplo:
- To drink / drinkable (beber / bebible)
- To reason / reasonable (razonar / razonable)
-ance
Otro sufijo para convertir verbos a sustantivos. Fíjate en que, en caso necesario, se cambia la e final del verbo por una a:
- To insure / insurance (asegurar / seguro)
- To guide / guidance (guiar / guía)
-er
Se añade a verbos para designar a la persona que realiza la acción en cuestión. Por ejemplo:
- To speak / speaker (hablar / hablante)
- To teach / teacher (enseñar / el que enseña, profesor)
-ee
Complementario del anterior, este sufijo designa a la persona que recibe la acción indicada por el verbo original. Por ejemplo:
- To employ / employee (emplear / empleado)
-ment
Convierte verbos en sustantivos. Por ejemplo:
- To enlarge / enlargement (alargar / alargamiento)
- To move / movement (mover / movimiento)

Many members of academia marvel (or react with rejection) at the rapid changes in the production and dissemination of scholarly work and interaction between academics and those "outside" academic institutionseducation institutions are participating in social media (such as Twitter), as an important aspect of their research and teaching work.. Thousands of scholars and higher
ReplyDeleteThere is still considerable resistance to embracing social media tools for educational purposes, but if you are reading this article you are probably willing to consider their positive effects. New technologies have slow adoption cycles, and often the learning curve is steep. Those already using these tools within academic contexts should not be considered a priori as "the converted"; perception and usage of social media varies wildly, and due to the inherently fluid and malleable nature of the platforms themselves we are still in the process of assessing all their possibilities.
Mobile phones and tablets enable the user in producing content, and to publish and disseminate it online. The microblogging platform Twitter is purposefully designed to exchange information and to facilitate reciprocal communication and attribution, therefore enabling the creation of communities of individuals interested in common topics. But the easy part of tweeting is publishing content; the difficult side is actually committing to active public engagement. This is where "the ear", our ability to listen and to place ourselves in a particular context at a particular time, comes to the fore.
In traditional scholarly communications, academics produced a document (a thesis, an article, a book) and then sent it to someone else to review it, edit it, publish it, distribute it. It was a unidirectional mode of operation, even if the document was produced by research teams.
Today, more and more academics are creating content and posting it online. They make it available, but this does not necessarily guarantee people will read it. Whereas online availability is very important, what brings the process to fruition is engagement: the work of scholarly authorship does not end with publication: that is just the beginning.
Therefore, the 21st century scholar has the tools not only to publish and disseminate, but also to facilitate the development of specialised audiences, and therefore of what is called "impact": people read, and in turn write about your work, which is in turn read by others. "It's a conversation, not a lecture," is a well-known trope that is useful to remember in the scholarly web. This does not mean we should spend every waking hour chatting to strangers on social networks; it means that social media is not a uni-directional broadcasting tool. Those who "follow" us online are likely to be our students, colleagues, employers. They are not a passive audience.
