Prefixes


Prefix
A prefix is a group of letters placed before the root of a word. For example, the word "unhappy" consists of the prefix "un-" [which means "not"] combined with the root (stem) word "happy"; the word "unhappy" means "not happy."


Find 10 words with prefixes - tell what the prefix means and how it changes the root words.
Example - re - to do again.  Word - reinstall - to install a second time.
