A Manual of German Prefixes and Suffixes

A Manual of German Prefixes and Suffixes – is a manual which was published in 1888 and written by James Shannon Blackwell. He was a professor of Semitic and Modern Languages in the University of Missouri. The outline of this manual, which is presented with considerable hesitation to teachers and students of German, does not include the etymology of prefixes and suffixes. The book is intended simply as a practical guide for students who may want to better understand the meaning of German words than even the best dictionaries provide. As far as the author was aware, there is no such manual in any language.
