This is the first post in the second “chapter” of the Vocab-ability series. While the first chapter presented the roots that function as “Stems” of current English words, this chapter will present those roots that function as “Prefixes.”
This post comprises all those prefixes that begin with the letter “A.” It includes many English prefixes whose etymology can be traced to Greek and Latin roots.
If you learn these prefixes, you will be able understand and use many English words that feature them. Vocab-ability is an easy-to-use resource guide to help you understand those prefixes.
In total, this Vocab-ability post features 11 prefixes that begin with the letter “A."

Note re Intro to Vocab-ability and Guide to Vocab-ability :
Below are the links to the Introduction and the Guide to the Vocab-ability series:

Note re Distinguishing between Different Chapters:
As this Vocab-ability series progresses, there will be some overlap of the various alphabetical groupings
(i.e., an "A" post in the first chapter of “Stems” , and now another "A" post in this chapter of “Prefixes”).
However, you can easily distinguish between those posts containing “Stems” and those containing “Prefixes.” As you may notice, the text boxes in the different groups have different borders.
The first “Stems” group has boxes with GRAY borders … 
This “Prefixes” group has boxes with TAN borders … 
(Hope this distinction helps.)
