desertcart.com: English Words from Latin and Greek Elements: 9780816508990: Donald M. Ayers, Thomas D. Worthen, R. L. Cherry: Books

Review: Most useful book ever. - I did buy this for a class, and doing the required work was rather time consuming, however, it was also very rewarding and useful. Never again will you wonder when a medical professional throws out some term. Despite knowledge of Latin and/or Greek, this book just drills you on breaking words down when applied to English, as well as some light discussion of semantic shift over time and some other basic linguistic principles, which are sufficient for the layman or classics student, while short enough to not be tedious to someone in linguistics. The examples used are a bit antiquated in the chapter introductions, but as the rest of the lessons deal with antiquated suffixes, prefixes and roots/bases of words, it is rather timeless. I still frequently carry it with me to brush up on what I learned.
Review: Excellent Book - This is the exact book I used in high school, excellent book, excellent class, excellent teacher. The experience was knowledgeable and one of the best to date.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Most useful book ever.
*by A***. on May 11, 2014*

I did buy this for a class, and doing the required work was rather time consuming, however, it was also very rewarding and useful.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Book
*by K***O on December 30, 2023*

This is the exact book I used in high school, excellent book, excellent class, excellent teacher. The experience was knowledgeable and one of the best to date.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not a fan.
*by A***S on April 10, 2025*

I'm not a fan of this book. I ordered it because I was taking a Word Power class at the U of Iowa. I wish I hadn't signed up for that one. No instruction, simply read and take the exams. This book is not easy to digest. I hope you're using it with other instruction.
