eLearning Blog - A Look Back (Part 13)

During December 2008, there was a big emphasis on prefixes. Many, many common words use prefixes and knowing the meaning of some common prefixes can help you figure out the meaning of a word. Take a look at all of the blog posts from December that discussed prefixes. Which two or three prefixes were you least familiar with? Post the prefix, the date it was discussed in the blog, and the meaning of the prefix.

Enjoy & happy learning!

Luckily, I was pretty familiar with most of these prefixes, especially circum-. Its a familiar prefix that I recognize from many words that I've used. However, there were a few that had me a little stuck. These were retro- and sub-. I wasn't to acquainted with them because they aren't words that I use in my regular day to day vocabulary. With some explanation I was able to figure out what they meant. I plan on further learning these prefixes to improve my vocabulary.
