"Suffixation" is a contagious rap song targeting the comprehension and manipulation of suffixes. This rap is invaluable for English, ESL-EFL-ESOL and Special Education learners of all ages who have trouble grasping the meaning of words that contain suffixes.
Rather than run to look up a word in the dictionary, this song teaches the meaning of several suffixes so that learners will already be on their way to understanding many words.
Chorus:
My suffix fixation has caused suffixation
I cannot find a reason or an explanation.
But to claim that this notion has no explanation
Would be wrong. I'll fix this song until its expiration.
It's not porous, don't implore us to just jump to the chorus.
We're full of vigor. Yes, vigorous. You'll figure us humorous....
Chorus
I am able to enable and render you capable
of grasping that suffixes are very understandable...
Chorus
...You are someone who does
Whether you're a farmer or a weeper.
You have to be a believer
Because now I'm your teacher.
