Lesson 10: December 4
Homophones – words that sound the same but are spelled differently. They also have different meanings.
Rule: Prefixes are added to the beginning of a root word to change the meaning of that word. However, the spelling of the root word does not change. The prefix RE changes the meaning to back or again.
