2017年6月大学英语四级词汇前缀:inter-,intel-,enter-
拉丁前缀inter-来源于拉丁介词inter,意思相当于 between(在…之间) 或 among(在…的中间)。inter-本是原生词缀,它出现在从法语引进的拉丁词中。但是,现在它已经成为英语的派生前缀,可以与不同语源的动词、名词相结合,表示between,mutually,mutual等意思。与动词结合时,inter-是个副词性前缀,不改变词基单词的词性;与名词结合时,它是形容词或介词性前缀。当它作为介词性前缀与名词结合时,可能改变词基的词性,生成形容词。inter-的异体intel-只能作原生词缀,出现在intellect等少数单词中。与前缀inter-形近的前缀有intro,intra
意为“在内,向内”,注意不要混淆。
另外,前缀inter-有以下几种变形。
1. intel- [在辅音字母I前]
intelligent, intellectual
2.enter- (emtr-)[用于法语系统]
entertainer, enterprising, entrepreneur
