According to Sudaryanto in "Tata Bahasa Baku Bahasa Jawa", the types of Javanese Affixes are prefixes, suffixes, infixes, and circumfixes. The prefix N- added to the word pangan ('food'), for example will, change the word pangan ('food') which is noun to mangan ('eat') which is verb. The example of the Javanese suffix is the suffix -en . The word bleduk (dust) + -en becomes bleduken ('dusty'). The example of Javanese infix is the infix -em-. The Javanese word semega ('the condition of someone who likes to eat much; this condition usuallyrefers to the teenagers') is derived from the word sega ('rice') added ti the infix -em- . The example of Javanese circumfix is the circumfix N- .... -I. The word mbanyoni ('to irrigate'), for example is derived from the word banyu ('water') added to the circumfix N- .... -I.
