We write words prefix-root-suffix Ex re port er We define them suffix-root-prefix. er port re

This is a mirror image. Port means to carry. Re means back or again. Or or Er at the end of any word means a person who. Therefore reporter Prefix re +Root port +Suffix er= Suffix person who+ Root carries + Prefix back. Reporter= a person who carries back. If you think about it a reporter is a person who carries information back; therefore, this definition although imperfect makes sense.

Porter= a person who carries Er-a person who. Port- carry A porter at a train station carries your luggage.

Report= to carry back. Port- carry Re- back In a report you are carrying information back to your reader.
