SSC Suffix and Prefix Rules সংক্রান্ত প্রয়োজনীয় সমস্ত তথ্যাবলী, সিলেবাস ও পূর্ণাঙ্গ নির্দেশিকা এই আর্টিকেলে বিস্তারিত আলোচনা করা হলো।
এসএসসি ও দাখিল ইংরেজি ২য় পত্র পরীক্ষায় ব্যাকরণ (Grammar) অংশের অত্যন্ত স্কোরিং এবং সহজ একটি প্রশ্ন হলো Suffix and Prefix (Suffix ও Prefix)। জাতীয় শিক্ষাক্রম ও পাঠ্যপুস্তক বোর্ড (NCTB) অনুমোদিত প্রশ্নকাঠামোতে এটি ৬ নম্বর প্রশ্নে থাকে এবং পূর্ণমান হলো ৫ নম্বর (০.৫ × ১০ = ৫ নম্বর: a থেকে j পর্যন্ত ১০টি শূন্যস্থান)। এই SSC Suffix and Prefix Rules যথাযথভাবে অনুসরণ করলে পরীক্ষায় সর্বোত্তম ফলাফল অর্জন করা সম্ভব।
ইংরেজি শব্দভাণ্ডার (Vocabulary) গঠন এবং পার্টস অফ স্পিচের অবস্থানগত পরিবর্তনের কৌশল আয়ত্ত করলে এই অংশে পূর্ণ ৫-এ ৫ নম্বর অর্জন করা অত্যন্ত সহজ।
সারসংক্ষেপ: এসএসসি Suffix ও Prefix প্রশ্নকাঠামো ও নম্বর অর্জনের টেকনিক
প্রশ্ন ক্রমিক ও মানবণ্টন: Question No. 6 — Suffixes and Prefixes (০.৫ × ১০ = ৫ নম্বর)।
মূল ব্যাকরণিক তত্ত্ব: মূল শব্দের (Root word) পূর্বে কোনো বর্ণ বা বর্ণসমষ্টি যুক্ত হলে তাকে Prefix বলে (যেমন: un-, dis-, in-, im-, il-, ir-, mis-); আর মূল শব্দের শেষে যুক্ত হলে তাকে Suffix বলে (যেমন: -tion, -ment, -ful, -less, -ly, -ness)। এই SSC Suffix and Prefix Rules যথাযথভাবে অনুসরণ করলে পরীক্ষায় সর্বোত্তম ফলাফল অর্জন করা সম্ভব।
অনেক ক্ষেত্রে একই সাথে Prefix ও Suffix উভয়ই যুক্ত হয় (যেমন: un-comfort-able = uncomfortable)।
নম্বর পাওয়ার কৌশল: শূন্যস্থানের আগের ও পরের শব্দ দেখে পদটির (Parts of Speech) অবস্থান নিশ্চিত হতে হবে—সেটি কি Noun, Adjective, Verb নাকি Adverb হবে। অর্থ অনুযায়ী ইতিবাচক নাকি নেতিবাচক শব্দ বসবে তা বিবেচনা করে Prefix/Suffix নির্বাচন করতে হবে।
SSC Suffix and Prefix Rules – Suffix ও Prefixের ১৫টি অলঙ্ঘনীয় গোল্ডেন রুলস (Top 15 Golden Rules & Shortcut Tables)
বোর্ড পরীক্ষায় ভালো নম্বর নিশ্চিত করতে পার্টস অফ স্পিচ চেনার শর্টকাট অবস্থান টেবিলটি সবচেয়ে বেশি সাহায্য করবে:
১. পার্টস অফ স্পিচের অবস্থান ও Suffix চেনার মাস্টার চার্ট (Parts of Speech Identification Matrix)
| Target Part of Speech | Common Suffixes / Prefixes | Sentence Position (কখন বসবে) | Example Transformation |
|---|
| Noun | -tion, -sion, -ment, -ness, -ance, -ence, -ity, -hood, -ship, -er, -or | Article ও Preposition-এর মাঝে; Possessive-এর পর; বাক্যের Subject বা Object হিসেবে | educate → education, kind → kindness, boy → boyhood |
| Adjective | -ful, -less, -able, -ible, -al, -ic, -ive, -ous, -ish, -y, -ed, -ing | Noun-এর ঠিক পূর্বে; Be-verb বা Linking verb-এর পরে | care → careful / careless, prosper → prosperous, comfort → comfortable |
| Adverb | -ly (Adjective + ly) | বাক্যের শুরুতে (কমার পূর্বে); Verb বা Adjective-কে মডিফাই করতে | sincere → sincerely, rapid → rapidly, fortunate → fortunately |
| Verb | en-, em- (Prefix); -en, -ify, -ize / -ise (Suffix) | Subject-এর পর; Modal Auxiliary বা ‘to’ (Infinitive)-এর পর | large → enlarge, power → empower, pure → purify, modern → modernize |
২. বিপরীতার্থক ও নেতিবাচক Prefix টেবিল (Negative Prefix Matrix)
| Negative Prefix | Usage & Meaning | Root Words | Negative Transformed Word |
|---|
| un- | অ / না-বোধক সাধারণ বিপরীত শব্দ | happy, kind, known, conscious, fair | unhappy, unkind, unknown, unconscious, unfair |
| dis- | বিপরীত বা অভাব নির্দেশক | honest, agree, obey, like, order | dishonest, disagree, disobey, dislike, disorder |
| im- / in- | ‘p’ ও ‘m’ দিয়ে শুরু শব্দের আগে ‘im-‘ এবং অন্যদের আগে ‘in-‘ | possible, moral, pure, active, direct | impossible, immoral, impure, inactive, indirect |
| il- / ir- | ‘l’ দিয়ে শুরু হলে ‘il-‘ এবং ‘r’ দিয়ে শুরু হলে ‘ir-‘ | literate, legal, regular, responsible | illiterate, illegal, irregular, irresponsible |
| mis- | ভুল বা অনুচিত কাজ বোঝাতে | lead, take, conduct, fortune, judge | mislead, mistake, misconduct, misfortune, misjudge |
বোর্ড পরীক্ষার ৩টি গোপন কৌশল ও সতর্কতা:
১. ডাবল চেঞ্জ (Prefix + Suffix উভয়ই): অনেক সময় ব্র্যাকেটের শব্দকে শুধুমাত্র Suffix বা Prefix দিলে সঠিক অর্থ প্রকাশ পায় না, উভয়ই পরিবর্তন করতে হয়। যেমন: ‘comfort’ থেকে uncomfortable, ‘fortune’ থেকে unfortunately, ‘literate’ থেকে illiteracy।
২. বানান পরিবর্তনের প্রতি যত্নশীল হোন: কোনো Adjective-এর শেষে ‘y’ থাকলে Suffix ‘-ly’ বা ‘-ness’ যোগ করার সময় ‘y’ উঠে ‘i’ হয় (যেমন: happy → happily / happiness, busy → business)।
৩. অর্থের সমন্বয় সাধন: পুরো প্যাসেজের মূল সুরটি পজিটিভ নাকি নেতিবাচক তা বিবেচনা করে শব্দ পরিবর্তন করতে হবে। যেমন: ‘Water is being polluted’ এর পর ‘harm’ থাকলে উত্তর হবে harmful, কিন্তু ‘Protect trees from’ থাকলে উত্তর হবে destruction।
