Exercise#1. Look at the text about similarities and differences of word 
-formation in compared languages. There are 12 mistakes are underlined in it. 
Replace them with the correct words from the box below. 
origin independent prefixing bound negative full repetition or reversal proper 
semi-bound prefixes 
The main similarity of forming words is having the way of affixing in all compared 
languages. And all of them have the subtypes, such as borrowing, suffixing and 
prefix-suffix. For example, English prefixes are such particles that can be prefixed 
to separate words and it is mostly characteristic for forming verbs. 
Prefixes can be considered more dependent than suffixes in English. They can be 
classified according to the nature of words in which they are used: prefixes used in 
notional and functional words. Prefixes used in notional words are irrelevant 
prefixes, which are semi-bound morphemes, e.g. re- (rewrite). Prefixes used in 
functional words are bound morphemes because they are met in the language as 
words, e.g. over- (overprotected) ( cf. over the book ). 
Prefixes can be classified according to different principles:

of 
positivemeaning, 
such 
as:

(invaluable), 
non- 
(non-morphological), un- (unhappy) etc.

(disappear). c) prefixes denoting time, space, degree relations, such as : inter- 
(international) , hyper- (hypertension), ex- (ex-friend), pre- (pre-reading), over- 
(overhead) etc. 
2.Usage of prefixes can be classified as follows: 
a) native (Germanic), such as: un-, over-, under- etc. 
b) Romanic, such as : in-, de-, ex-, re- etc. 
c) Greek, such as : sym-, hyper- etc. 
Besides, there are a lot of borrowed suffixes in English:
