Show transcript
A prefix is a letter or group of letters at the start of a word which changes its meaning. The prefix bi- means ‘two’ and the prefix trans- means ‘across’. The prefix tele- means ‘distant’ and the prefix circum- means ‘around’. Recognising prefixes can help us understand a word’s meaning and help us to spell it. How to spell the curriculum words: bicycle, naughty and enough.
