Prefixes: bi-, non-, over• A prefix is a word part
added to the beginning
of another word to form
a new word with its own
meaning.
• nonstop
• oversize
• biweekly
• Recognizing prefixes can
help you figure out the
meanings of words.
• I know that the prefix nonmeans “not or without”, so
nonstop means “without a
stop”.
• What about oversize?
• over means “more than or
above” so oversize must
mean above the size
• biweekly
• bi means “two or twice” so
biweekly mean twice a
week
