Memahami Imbuhan dan contohnya dalam Bahasa Inggris (awalan / Prefix dan akhiran/suffix) |
What is Prefix?
A prefix is either a letter or group
of letters which are placed at the beginning of a word to modify or change its
meaning. We have a lot of prefixes in English. The example below is a list of
the prefixes which are commonly used in English, together with their basic
meaning and examples. Note also that this list does not include elements like
"auto-" or " bio-", because these are "combining
forms", not prefixes.
Prefix/awalan adalah baik huruf atau kelompok
huruf yang ditempatkan pada awal sebuah kata untuk memodifikasi atau mengubah
maknanya. Kita memiliki
banyak prefiks dalam bahasa Inggris. Contoh di bawah ini adalah daftar awalan
yang umum digunakan dalam bahasa Inggris, didikuti dengan arti
dasar mereka dan contohnya .
Perhatikan juga bahwa daftar ini tidak mencakup unsur-unsur seperti " auto
" atau " bio ", karena mereka adalah "bentuk gabungan kata", dan bukan awalan.
