What Are Suprafix Circumfix And Simulfix

What's the difference between a prefix, a suffix and an affix?

other terms are uncommon.

Categories of affixes Affix Example Schema Description
Prefix un-do prefix-stem Appears at the front of a stem
Suffix/Postfix look-ing stem-suffix Appears at the back of a stem
Infix Minne‹flippin'›sota st‹infix›em Appears within a stem — common in Borneo-Philippines languages
Circumfix a›scatter‹ed circumfix›stem‹circumfix One portion appears at the front of a stem, and the other at the rear
Interfix speed-o-meter stema-interfix-stemb Links two stems together in a compound
Duplifix teeny~weeny stem~duplifix Incorporates a reduplicated portion of a stem
(may occur in front, at the rear, or within the stem)
Transfix Maltese: k‹i›t‹e›b "he wrote"
(compare root ktb "write") s‹transfix›te‹transfix›m A discontinuous affix that interleaves within a discontinuous stem
Simulfix mouse → mice Changes a segment of a stem
Suprafix produce (noun)
produce (verb) Changes a suprasegmental phoneme of a stem
Disfix Alabama: tipli "break up"
(compare root tipasli "break") stm The elision of a portion of a stem

Prefix and suffix may be subsumed under the term adfix in contrast to infix.

In transcription, for example in the third column in the chart above, simple affixes such as prefixes and suffixes are shown connected to the stem with hyphens. Affixes which disrupt the stem, or which themselves are discontinuous, are often marked off with angle brackets. Reduplication is often shown with a tilde.

Circumfixes are a fixture of Austronesian languages, and Tagalog/Filipino isn’t alone in having them.pinagtibayan - approvedkaharian - kingdompandaigdigan - international (lit. “for the world”)pinasalamatan - was thanked/was given thanksSome circumfixes willThere are even double circumfixes in use!sangkatauhan - humanity (as in all people)pangkapayapaan - for peaceminiminahan - is being minedThis list is by no means exhaustive, but Tagalog/Filipino is definitely there when it comes to its use of circumfixes.

Putting an affix onto, or into, a word to modify the meaning. "Grammar" doesn't usually use the term, linguistics does.Prefixes, suffixes, infixes, interfixes, transfixes, and circumfixes are different types of affixes.There are also suprafixes, disfixes, and duplifixes. Some consider these affixes, but they don't fit the traditional conceptualization of affixation.Duplifixes for example, are used to describe reduplication, which is really duplicating a part of a root or morpheme (rather than affixing a different morpheme). This happens in many languages both fully (as in reduplicating the whole word) or partially (as in reduplicating a syllable).  Disfixes are used to describe deletion of part of the root. This is pretty rare, butt happens in French between masculine and feminine; masculine adjectives are often formed by deleting the last consonant e.g. [bɔ̃] is 'good-MASC' [bɔn] is 'good-FEM'/Suprafixes are changing the supersegmental features of the word, e.g. changing the stress in English to change a verb into a noun: récycle vs recýcle. That works in my dialect at least, where the first is a noun, and the second is a verb. Other probably more cross-dialectal examples are tránsfer (noun) transfér (verb).

What is the difference between sulphate and sulfide?

Ions that end in "ate" and "ite" imply they are polyatomic ions that combine with oxygen. Those with "ate" have one more oxygen that the corresponding "ite" ion.

The overall charge on the polyatomic ions ending in "ate" and "ite" are the same. Also, if the prefix "per" isadded to the name, there is one more oxygen that the "ate", and if there is a "hypo" prefix, there is one less oxygen than the "ite" ion.
"per"sulf"ate" & "hypo"sul"ite"

In all cases, the charge on the overall ion is (-2). Only the oxidation state of sulfur changes within the ion.
Ions ending with "ide" imply monoatomic ions that have only a single element in the ion. The "ide" ending also tells you you are dealing with a binary compound(two elements) when the compound name ends in ide. The sulfure in the sulfide ion has a fixed oxidations state (-2)
