词组 | ante-, anti- |
释义 | ante-, anti- Several handbooks warn against confusing these prefixes. Ante- means "earlier, before," and anti- (sometimes found as ant- or anth-) "opposite, opposed, against." See a good dictionary for fuller definitions. There was an anti- in use as a variant of ante-at one time, but it seems to have become disused because of the possibility of confusion with the "against" anti-. So there is now no excuse for a mistake with these prefixes. |
