Question

1. which of the following is the correct prefix of the word waiflike: -like: “similar to” or “characteristic of.” -waif: a homeless, abandoned, or neglected person (often thin and fragile). no prefix -like: \choose, gather, select, read\ 8. what is prefix of the word bewildered: -be: meaning “uniformed” or “misled.” -be: meaning “thoroughly” or “completely.” -be: meaning \good, well, gentle\ -be: meaning \to hear, listen\ 9. what is the root of the word not: -not: from latin notus, meaning \law, order\

Explanation:

For question 7, a prefix is added before a root - word. In "waiflike", "waif" is the root - word and "like" is a suffix meaning "similar to" or "characteristic of", so there is no prefix.
For question 8, the prefix "be -" in "bewildered" often means "thoroughly" or "completely".
For question 9, the word "not" is a simple word and is not derived from Latin "notus" meaning "law, order". It is an adverb with its own independent meaning and has no root in the traditional sense as presented in the option.

Answer:

1. No prefix
2. -be: meaning "thoroughly" or "completely."
3. None of the above (as the given option is incorrect)
