Hello everyone, in our Lesson 11, we learnt about the prefix auto. Auto represent the meaning Self. With that lesson, we have completed all the prefixes starting with the letter A. Today we shall see the prefix, which starts with the letter B, be. Happy Reading :)
Day 12 : Be
- be - throughly; to make
Let's try to understand these with some examples....
- become (verb) = to start to be something
- be - Prefix = to make
- come (kommen) - Root = get; receive
- behaviour (noun) = the way that somebody behaves especially towards other people.
- be - Prefix = throughly
- havi - Root = have
- our - Suffix = belong to us
- bestow = to give, to grant
- bewail = express great sadness
- betoken = to be a sign of something
- belated = coming or happening late
- behoove = to be necessary or proper
- betrothal = to make arrangements before marriage (engagement)
- beguile = to make someone attract towards you before you cheat them
