Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Let's look at the morphological breakdown of each word:
* शिष्या = शिष्य + आ (Suffix 'आ' is used)
* शेरनी = शेर + नी (Suffix 'नी' is used)
* दयामय = दया + मय (Suffix 'मय' is used)
* परिचय = परि + चय (Prefix 'परि' is used, no suffix is present)
Thus, परिचय is formed with a prefix and not a suffix.
