WORD FORMATION WITH HEBREW

TRANSLITERATION
HEBREW

So far I have yet to run across a complete list of all prefixs, suffixes and infixes that are used to form new words in Hebrew. Such a collection would be invaluable to a student of this language. Here is my current collection. If you would be so kind as to share some that are not on this list it would be greatly appreciated.
