Assimilated Prefixes<br />

ad-<br />

A prefix is a unit <strong>of</strong> meaning that attaches to the beginning <strong>of</strong> a root or base word to alter<br />

its meaning or create a new word.<br />

In assimilated prefixes the sound and the spelling <strong>of</strong> the final consonant in the prefix is<br />

“absorbed” into the initial consonant <strong>of</strong> the base or root to which the prefix is joined. The<br />

initial consonant <strong>of</strong> the base or root word is doubled.<br />

ad- = to, toward<br />

in- = in, not, toward, together<br />
