Question

the prefixes dis- and de- also mean not. they let you know that the new word now has the opposite meaning of the root word. what is the meaning of the word disallowed? a allowed again b before being allowed c halfway allowed d not allowed

Explanation:

The word "disallowed" consists of the prefix "dis - " (which means "not") and the root word "allowed". So combining their meanings, "disallowed" means "not allowed". Option A means "allowed again" (likely from a prefix like "re - "), Option B means "before being allowed" (prefix like "pre - "), Option C means "halfway allowed" (prefix like "semi - " or "half - "), and Option D matches the meaning of "dis - " + "allowed".

Answer:

D. not allowed
