Identify and define the affixes in the word “inflexible.”

The word ''Inflexible'' has ''in'' which turns the word ''flexible'' into an antonym (the opposite of a word). The Greek prefix ''in'' means ''not'' or ''in''.

Also, ''-ible'' is a Greek suffix which can mean ''is'' or ''can be''.

Hope this helps! :)
