PHP/Javascript Prefixes and Suffixes Game Tutorial

PHP/Javascript Prefixes and Suffixes Game Tutorial

Do you like word games? Today’s game asks for word(s) that contain a nominated Prefix or Suffix … we’re going to call the game “The Prefixes and Suffixes Game” (too snappy for you?!) … and you try to build your score with as many words as you can.

Today’s data source is a book called Five-Minute Activities by Penny Ur and Andrew Wright. We thank this source for their great opposites word list on pages 62-63.

This game uses HTML and Javascript programming languages.

Hopefully you can figure the rules when you click the picture above for a live run.

Another thank you to The Free Dictionary for its great online presence as a dictionary resource, for the functionality to explain an unknown or incomplete answer for the word in question, for its dictionary meaning. The image map “click parts of the picture” vocabulary ESL tutorials at this blog use the same resource to explain dictionary information about clicked on “things”.

Anyway, see how you go with this vocabulary-building game!
