UNIT 4
WORD BUILDING: PREFIXATION
Prefixation
Prefixation which is joining the prefix to the root does not change the meaning of the word but merely adds a semantic component specifying either spatial localization (above, below, ahead, behind), or direction (approaching, receding), or time reference (preceding or following something); it may also indicate the absence of something or negate it.
Prefixes developed mainly from prepositions, therefore, their direct meanings are similar to the meanings of the corresponding prepositions.
A few prefixes also developed secondary or transferred meanings. Thus, the Greek prefix para- acquired the transferred meaning ‘departing or deviating from something, inconsistency between the manifestations and the essence of a phenomenon’, e.g. para-nasalis – paranasal but para-mnesia (Gr. mnesia – memory) – the general name for distorted or false recollections; paratyphus – the general name for human infectious diaseases caused by a certain kind of Salmonella bacteria and characterized by clinical manifestations similar (!) to the symptoms of typhoid fever.
In descriptive morphological names Latin prefixes are used in their direct meanings. In the terms denoting pathological conditions, diseases, functional disturbances of organs, etc, prefixes are used in their secondary meanings: e.g. anat.: hypo-gastrium (Gr. hypo- below, under) – hypogastrium; path. physiology: hypo-tonia (Gr. hypo- below, under the norm) – hypotony, decreased tone of a muscle or of muscular layer of the hollow organ.
Greek and Latin prefixes are in wide use in various subsystems of medical terminology and biology. Moreover, Latin prefixes are predominant in anatomical terms while Greek prefixes are abundant in the terms of pathological anatomy, physiology, clinical subjects.
144
As a rule, Latin prefixes are joined to Latin roots. However, there are some exceptional cases when the so-called hybrid words are built, e. g. the words epifascialis (epifascial), endo-cervicalis (endocervical) include Greek prefixes and Latin derivational stems. When building terms with the help of prefixes whole words are used as derivational stems.
Antonymic Prefixes
Antonymic prefixes are those whose meanings are opposite, e. g. Lat. intra- (inside) and extra- (outside); Gr. endo- (inside) and ecto- or exo- (outside), etc.
The meanings of a number |
of Latin prefixes are similar to those of Greek |
prefixes: |
|
Lat. inter- |
contra- |
between, |
against, |
in the middle |
counter-, anti- |
Gr. meso- |
anti- |
Lat. com (con)-
together with, with
Gr. syn(sym)-
NOTE. When prefixes are joined to stems prefixes themselves may be modified being affected by the initial sound of the stem. It is known as assimilation, i.e. when the final consonant in a prefix assimilates (becomes similar) fully or partly with the initial sound of the derivational stem, e.g. the prefix ad- before the initial consonants c, f, g, n, p is fully transformed into ac-, af-, ag-, an-, ap-. The final n in prefixes before b, p turns into m (com-pressor ← con- (together with, with); sym-biosis ← syn- (tohether with, with)) or fully assimilates before the consonants l, m, r.
145
Words Derived by Means of Both Suffixes and Prefixes
A number of words were built by joining both a suffix and a prefix to the stem. This pattern was highly productive both in ancient Greece (hypo-gastrium, mes-enter-ium) and in later periods (mesometrium, mesovarium, perichondrium, periodontium, paracolpium, endocardium, pericardium, epineurium , etc.).
The most common Latin and Greek prefixes are listed in Vocabulary Extension 4.
