Back-Formation: What Is It? Back-formation is a linguistic process where a new word is created by removing an affix (like a prefix or suffix) from an existing word. This often results in a shorter word that becomes widely accepted in the language. It’s like working backward from a longer word to form a simpler one! ‎Back-formation is a fascinating way to see how language evolves and adapts to the needs of its speakers. #englishlanguagelearners #basicenglishvocabulary #learning #spokenenglish #la
