Question

a prefix showing negation is de-, meaning do the opposite of, remove, or reduce. an example is the word devalue. name three words with the prefix de-.

1. delusional

2.

Explanation:

To solve this, we recall the meaning of the prefix "de - " (do the opposite of, remove, reduce) and think of words with this prefix.

• "Defrost": means to remove frost (reduce or remove frost from something).
• "Dethrone": means to remove someone from a throne (do the opposite of keeping them on the throne).
• "Decrease": means to reduce in amount or size.

Answer:

1. Defrost
2. Dethrone

(Or other valid words like Decrease, Demote, etc. Here we provide two more to meet the "three words" requirement. The first given is Delusional, then we add Defrost, Dethrone as examples.)
