Hello. I believe many confuse the prefix, "-in" with the proper word, "within." For example I contest the aforementioned prefix means, "not" e.g. insurmountable, incapable, infrared. Many seem to believe the prefix in question means, "inside," which to my mind simply means, "not side." Agreements, disagreements?
"with" They went in the building; within it from where they all found something in the box, which was inside the room in which they resided in.
On truck signs carrying dangerous cargo:: inflammable, (can not burn) highly inflammable (nearly explosive) exacerbated by bilingual french/ english signage
Beat me to it -in <-- a prefix? Surely not intended? And inside out means? Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
Given the first above surely you mean " not side side out" Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
Incandescent - emitting light (as a result of being heated). Candescent - glowing with heat; luminous. Incarcerate - to imprison or confine. Carcerate - to imprison or confine. Ergo "in" is not necessarily "not".
Any examples of (other) people confusing the prefix "in" with an "inside" connotation ? Btw infrared has the prefix "infra" which does mean "within" @exch it took me years to work out that "inflammable" and "flammable" had the same meaning. (zero difference,I think)
