This article explores two fundamental methods of word formation in the English language: conversion and affixation. Conversion involves a shift in a word's grammatical category without changing its form, while affixation modifies words by adding prefixes or suffixes. The paper analyzes the linguistic mechanisms, usage, and productivity of these processes and their impact on English vocabulary expansion.
