Anonymous i need the prefix and the suffix in the word smirk I have no reason to doubt that both are null. The Indo-European root is 'smei'. The Germanic languages added 'r' at one point, and the 'k' appeared in Old English, but neither of these latter two changes can be considered suffixes in modern English.
