Many words are made up of a root or base word

Attach the prefix ex, meaning out or out of, and you have the word export, to carry out.
Attach the prefix im, meaning in or into and you have import, to carry in. Attach the prefix trans, meaning across, and you have transport, meaning to carry across.
Now lets attach the suffix able, meaning able to be, and you have importable, exportable, and transportable.
By learning the common roots and prefixes (and a few suffixes) you will be able to discern the meaning of many new words almost immediately.
