  5. All prefixes and sufixes are quiet important at the same time of giving clear ideas with composed words-nouns.
    Eg: "Un" means no, without: unfortunately
    "Dis" has kind of the same sense: disrespecful
    "Pre" means before: Preintermediate Level.
    Now, working on them is pretty important for a berrer understanding. Take care Guys!
