AFFIXES
The word stem -cogni- (meaning "know") occurs in many words. 1. Add an affix to this stem to make another word. 2. Explain the meaning of the word and use it in a complete sentence. Each participant should add a different word to the list.
Jaquelyn and Janny, try not to repeat the words I already used in the blog! Janny, if you look carefully at the earlier posting, you will see that the word is "incognito".
