Did you know that you can add a suffix to the end of a base word to change its meaning?
The suffixes -er, -or, and -ar are used to turn verbs into nouns. These nouns usually refer to roles that people take on.
Let’s look at some examples:
The verb teach + the suffix -er = the noun teacher (someone who teaches).
The verb act + the suffix -or = the noun actor (someone who acts).
The verb beg + the suffix -ar = the noun beggar (someone who begs).
Sometimes you need to change the base word before you add the suffix so use the spelling activities to ensure you are confident with these -er, -or, and -ar words.
