Lesson 156 Of Prefixes
When a syllable or word is placed before another word, it is called a prefix. The prefix re generally gives the idea of repetition or return; as, recall, to call back.
re build’ re ap pear’ re an’i mate re touch’ re as cend’ re gen’er ate re seat’ re im burse’ re sus’ci tate re view’ ro doub’le re ver’ber ate
The prefix un generally gives a negative meaning; as, unapt, not apt.
un paid’ un friend’ly un court’ly un clean’ un health’y un ea’sy un known’ un stead’y un fruit’ful un nerve’ un err’ing un learn’ed
