Final answer:

A prefix is an affix at the beginning of a word that alters its meaning, and roots are the fundamental components of words. Knowing prefixes assists in understanding unfamiliar terms.


Explanation:

Prefix: An affix placed at the beginning of a word that changes its meaning.

Root: The base of a word (with all affixes removed) which contains the core meaning of the word.

Understanding prefixes can help decipher unfamiliar words, such as 'un-' in 'undo,' which means to reverse an action.
