Word Parts - PRE



One of the fastest ways to increase your vocabulary is by learning word parts, i.e., roots, prefixes, suffixes or forms.

The TRiO SSS Scoop will give you a new word part every so often so that you can begin to work on increasing your college vocabulary. Here's your word part for today...

pre - before

prevent - to keep something from happening before it happens; prefer - to choose first or like better; prenatal - before birth, during pregnancy; preoccupied - having your attention already taken up by something; preamble - introductory statement before an important statement; preface - introductory remarks.

Can you figure out the definition for the following:
preprandial, preempt, predispose, prequel, prelude, previous, preview, predict
