PREFIXES - ONE WAY TO INCREASE YOUR VOCABULARY

“Prefixes

One way to increase your vocabulary is to learn to reoganize and to use prefixes.


A prefix: is one or two more syllables palced in front of  a root word to change the meaning of the root


Prefix         root                   new word

Dis          +   appear     =          disappear

Re            +  appear     =          reappear

Pre          +   appear     =          preappear




Some prefixes have a single, unchanging meaning.
