Prefixes

We are learning about prefixes. Prefixes are small words that we put at the beginning of other words to alter their meaning.

The prefixes we have learnt are:

mis - which means wrong

eg. Did you misread the sentence?

non - which means not

eg. She talked nonstop

ex - which means former or outside

eg. Lucy is an exfriend

co - which means together

eg. let's cooperate on this test.

anti - which means against

eg. The second hand moved anticlockwise.
