Prefixes! It's like a remix. It changes things, Like what a word means. You can find 'em at the front of a word. Learn 'em, you need 'em, To figure out words and their meanings. (x2) Prefixes are an important part, They tell you about a word, right from the start. When you see non- or un-, that means not, Like unintelligent or the word nonstop. It's a few more for not, that I'll hit you with, Il-, if you can't read, then you're illiterate. Inactive? No. Not moving, Impossible is something you cannot be doing. Irrational - you should have thought a bit, Dis- and de- mean opposite. If you disagree, well hey, that's cool, But your whole style gets devalued. The prefix anti- means against, You're antisocial if you don't have friends. Here comes the intermission, everybody sing, 'Cause inter- means between and the hook's here, see? Like... Prefixes! It's like a remix. It changes things, Like what a word means. You can find 'em at the front of a word. Learn 'em, you need 'em, To figure out words and their meanings. (x2) Allow me to reintroduce this word, 'Cause re- means again, let's be sure you heard. Even the word prefix has a prefix in it, Pre- means before, man, I hope y'all remembering. You may ask where they come from, Most are Greek or Latin, there's a whole bunch of 'em, Like macro- is large and micro- is small, Mono- is one. Are you hearin me, y'all? I could talk in a monotone on a telephone, And tele- goes the distance just like a telescope. If you kinda understand that's semi-, You'll halfway get it till you commit it to memory. Keep these in your mind's foreground, 'Cause fore- means front and you'll need 'em around. This song is over and I don't mean ending, It's overqualified, too much of a good thing. Prefixes! It's like a remix. It changes things, Like what a word means. You can find 'em at the front of a word. Learn 'em, you need 'em, To figure out words and their meanings. (x2) |
