what is the affix used in the words speechless and hopeless​

Sagot :

Answer:

SPEECHLESS= the suffix –LESS expresses the same idea as the preposition "without", so "speechless" means literally "without speech", that is, "without words". When you are speechless you can't speak because you're so impressed by something that you don't know what to say

HOPELESS= The suffix "less" in "hopeless" gives the meaning "without." derivations: suffixal (adj.), suffixion (n.)
