Word Knowledge
Yesterday I presented a question about the prefix hyper-. Do you know what the prefix hyper- means?
The prefix hyper- is one of the many prefixes I included in my book, The ASVAB Tutor’s Word Knowledge and Paragraph Comprehension Study Guide. Hyper- is derived from the Greek root for over. Many words in the English language have Greek prefix hyper-. Hypersensitive means overly sensitive. Hyperactive means overly active. Hyperbole means overly praising something. Hyperthermia means having a body temperature that is over normal. Did you know the meaning of this prefix?
