PREFIXES: CHANGING MEANING
LÝ THUYẾT TỪ VỰNG
A. With adjectives (Tiền tố với tính từ)
Prefixes, e.g. un-, dis-, im-, can be added to some adjectives to give the opposite meaning.
| happy | unhappy |
| possible | impossible |
| regular | irregular |
| honest [tells the truth] | dishonest |
| correct [right ✔] | incorrect |
| legal [allowed by law] | illegal |
- • Dan used all the milk but said he didn't; he's very dishonest.
- • I got eight answers right, but two were incorrect.

Of the prefixes above, un- is the most common, and appears in a number of adjectives.

LANGUAGE HELP
Adding a negative prefix does not usually change the pronunciation; the stress stays the same.
She was un'lucky. It's unbe'lievable. (NOT She was 'unlucky. It was 'unbelievable.)
C. With verbs (Tiền tố với động từ)
With some verbs, these prefixes can have particular meanings.
| dis- [the opposite of something] |

| un- [the opposite of an action] |

| over- [too much] |
The bank overcharged me. [asked me to pay too much money] |
| mis- [do something incorrectly] |
