Medical terminology is composed of a prefix, root word, and suffix. A prefix is placed at the beginning of a word to modify or change its meaning. Pre means “before.” Prefixes may also indicate a location, number, or time.
The root of a word is the central part of a word.
The ending part of a word is called a suffix and modifies the meaning of the word.
