Thiago explains the benefits of learning about affixes, including reducing word count, improving spelling, and decoding the meaning of longer words. He provides examples and encourages listeners to explore this topic further. Thiago also offers tips for studying word formation, such as using an English-to-English dictionary, making lists of words and their variations, and practicing with Cambridge exam prep materials.
