希腊和拉丁词根与词义

运用希腊和拉丁词缀（前缀和后缀）及词根作为线索，判断生词的含义，并积累常见词根及其含义。

Use knowledge of Greek and Latin affixes (prefixes and suffixes) and roots as clues to determine the meaning of unfamiliar words, building a bank of common roots and their meanings

学习证据 / Evidence

• 识别生词中常见的希腊和拉丁词根，并利用词根含义推断词义，例如：aquarium/aquatic中的“aqua”（水），predict/dictionary中的“dict”（说）。
• 将多语素词拆分为前缀+词根+后缀来推断含义，例如：un-（不）+ believe（相信）+ -able（可…的）= 不可信的。
• 运用希腊语源前缀（auto-, tele-, micro-）和拉丁语源前缀（inter-, trans-, sub-）的知识，在语境中解读和定义不熟悉的词汇。

• Identify common Greek and Latin roots in unfamiliar words and use root meaning to infer word meaning, e.g. 'aqua' (water) in aquarium/aquatic, 'dict' (say) in predict/dictionary
• Break a multi-morpheme word into prefix + root + suffix to determine meaning, e.g. un- (not) + believe + -able = not able to be believed
• Use knowledge of Greek-origin prefixes (auto-, tele-, micro-) and Latin-origin prefixes (inter-, trans-, sub-) to decode and define unfamiliar vocabulary in context

评估问题 / Assessment

如果{{name}}遇到一个包含自己认识的希腊或拉丁词根的生词——例如“transport”中的“port”或“biology”中的“bio”——能否利用这个词根推测出词义呢？

If {{name}} comes across an unfamiliar word containing a Greek or Latin root they recognise — like "port" in "transport" or "bio" in "biology" — can they use that to work out the meaning?
