  • circum- (as in circumscribe)Around or on all sides
  • contra- (as in contravene)Against or in direct opposition
  • intra- (as in intramural)Within or located on the inside

Cevap

The correct pairings match 'ante-' with 'Before or prior in time and order', 'circum-' with 'Around or on all sides', 'contra-' with 'Against or in direct opposition', and 'intra-' with 'Within or located on the inside'.
Each prefix corresponds directly to its standard Latin morphological root: 'ante-' indicates priority in time or position ('before'), 'circum-' indicates perimeter or surrounding movement ('around'), 'contra-' indicates contrary action or resistance ('against'), and 'intra-' denotes internal containment ('within').

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the prefix 'ante-' and examine its root function.
'ante-' functions as a temporal and spatial prefix meaning 'before' or 'preceding' (e.g., antecedent, antedate).
Isolating the temporal meaning matches it with prior time and order.
2
Analyze the prefix 'circum-' and examine its root function.
'circum-' specifies a perimeter or spatial enclosure meaning 'around' or 'about' (e.g., circumference, circumscribe).
Recognizing spatial boundary relations verifies the match with surrounding or on all sides.
3
Analyze the prefix 'contra-' and examine its root function.
'contra-' indicates opposition or conflict meaning 'against' or 'contrary' (e.g., contradict, contravene).
Identifying oppositional morphology links the prefix directly to direct opposition.
4
Analyze the prefix 'intra-' and examine its root function.
'intra-' denotes interior confinement meaning 'within' or 'on the inside' (e.g., intravenous, intramural).
Distinguishing interior prefixes from interpersonal or transitional prefixes establishes the internal match.
