Summary Introduction
In medical terminology, a letter or group of letters that are linked to the end of the word to make a new meaning or to modify the grammatical function of the word is referred to as the suffix. These grammatical suffixes are combined with the word roots to form the nouns and adjectives. The noun suffixes convert a word root into nouns that are associated with the medical aspects.
