What are combining forms? You can think of them as the Legos of language. As their name indicates, a combining form is a linguistic atom that occurs only in combination with some other form.
This week we'll feature five words made using combining forms:
pluto- (wealth), biblio- (book), epi- (upon), anemo- (wind), steno- (small)
and
-cracy (rule), -latry (worship), -graph (writing), and -meter (measure).
