A pre-fix is place in front of a word and is usually the root that contains the meaning of the word. The pre-fix is normally followed by a suffix making the word complete.

A prefix is a group of letters attached to the beginning of a word to modify its meaning. It can change the word's tense, form, or create a new word altogether. For example, "un-" in "unhappy" changes the word "happy" to mean not happy.
