一词根加上某前缀或后缀构成的，叫作派生词。前缀通常可以改变词义，

如un-,im-,anti-,pre-等；后缀通常可以改变词性或词义，如-tion,-er,

-al,-ful,-less等。2.flowerpot，earthquake，workshop，passerby等，这些词是由两个或更

多单词组成的，叫作合成词。3.hurt（动词）还可以变成hurt（名词），这种由一个词类变成另一个词

类的词，叫作转化词，如：

Theseshoesaretightandhurtmyfeet.(hurt为动词)

Ican’tdescribethehurtandangerIfeel.(hurt为名词)

要跟动词原形。如:Wecandealwiththesedifficultiessuccessfully.DoyouknowGrammarinUseModalverb2.常见情态动词的主要用法情态动词用法例句can,could表示“能够，可以”。could还可以比较婉转地提出请求或看法。Icancookwell.
