What can you tell me about these two words? This is a prefix. A prefix is a letter or a group of letters placed at the beginning of a word. Prefixes have meanings. For example, the prefix un- means "not." In the first sentence, the chessboard was not touched. In the second sentence, Juanita was not settled by the prices in the store.
The prefix re- can mean "again" or "back." In the first sentence, what does the word reapply mean? In the second sentence, what does the word recall mean?

out- "more than" or "better than"
The record shows that Michael can outrun his older brother.
Some words have u-n at the beginning, but u-n is not always a prefix. For example, look at the word unite. if I remove u-n from the front of this word, the remaining letters do not form a word. If u-n is a prefix, it is added to a whole word. ONe way to decide if u-n is a prefix in the word is to cover u-n and look at the remaining letts. If the remaining letters form a word, then u-n is probably a prefix in that word. Knowing prefixes can help you figure out an unknown word.
