If there are multiple options of any element, instructions will be provided for creating terms. If no instructions, then use any that is available. 5 things about prefixes: a prefix attaches to a root , prefix is never followed by a c. v . ; but if in the middle of a word, it will be preceded by one. Doesn"t matter what letter the root begins or ends with: five special prefixes frequently attach directly to termination a- dys- eu- hyper- hypo, they modify a termination qualitatively/quantitatively (rather than being locatives) Very frequently directly attach to a termination : a new termination is formed when any prefix is attached to it. cephalo dys megaly cephalo a megaly. Note: use the c. v. rules cephal-o- dys-megaly cephal- a-megaly: a word could be made up of just prefix + termination prefix + termination [=root + suffix, take care with any word with both prefix and adjectival suffix.
