Definitions from the WebAntonym for AffixDescription:An antonym is a word that has the opposite meaning of another word. For affix, which refers to a morpheme joined to the beginning or end of a word to modify its meaning, no specific antonym exists. Sample Sentences:1. Adding a prefix such as "un-" to a word is an example of an affix. Its antonym, however, doesn't exist. 2. Affixes can either be prefixes or suffixes, but their antonym, if there were one, would be another affix. 3. While there may not be a direct antonym for the term affix, the concept of not using an affix would be to leave the base word unchanged.
