Pre- means before. Post- means after. To use both prefixes together,

...would be preposterous

It’s okay if you have no idea what β€œprefix” means.

It’s not the end of the word.

Some plants have the prefix "dog"

"Some plants," said the teacher, "have the prefix 'dog.' For instance, there is the dogrose, the dogwood, the dogviolet. Now name another plant prefixed by 'dog'."

"I can," shouted one of the students, "Collieflower!"

If you’re looking for a prefix to extend the word β€˜ointment’

There's an app for that

I was once in a band called 999 megabytes.

We could never quite get a gig.

Edit: I was aware that it's 1024 Meg to a gig, but "a band called 1023 megabytes" doesn't have the same ring to it. Also doesn't getting the IT wrong make it more dad like?

I recently started a band called 999 megabytes.

We're good but we still haven't gotten a gig yet.

A "helen" could be used as a measurement of beauty, defined as a face that could launch a thousand ships. However, one should not use a "millihelen" to mean that a face could only launch one ship...

...because you shouldn't put metric prefixes on Troy units.

Future wife pulled this one on me...

Me (hanging up phone) : "They just canceled my appointment to the doctors".

Future Wife (with a shit eating grin): "Well that's a disappointment".

If you don't know what a prefix is, don't worry.

It's not the end of the word.
