Any opiate with the prefix oxy, hydro, etc in front of the name. Valuable because of the fact that they are not metabolized into morphine which makes the standard drug tests test for morphine in the urine. They can however be detected by extended drug tests if opiate use is suspected.
person one: "Dude, you're on probation, you should't take that oc."
person two: "Nah man, oxy's a prefix opiate, it'll be cool."

In theory, any form of Rock and Roll that requires a prefix to add focus: Emo Rock, Folk Rock, Punk Rock etc. In practice, a term used to describe a form of rock music that the speaker doesn't consider "authentic".

'-Egg' is a prefix used after a word ending with 'E' or pronounced with an 'E' at the end, it is used to show an undying appreciation for those beautiful organic vessels.
To use this prefix effectively in a sentence do not 'fuse' the prefix with the word like most prefixes do, instead just say it after the word with a sharp and brief transition between word and prefix, just like 'Lik'egg', pronounced 'Like-Egg'.
To write this prefix in a sentence write it as 'Lik'egg' (Like) or 'M'egg' (Me) for words that end with an 'E' (Words that end with 'E' are still pronounced separately from the prefix and word itself)
To write this prefix in a sentence using words that sound like they end with an 'E', write it as 'Carnival'egg' (And yes, carnival does sound out an 'E' at the end, it's just barely noticeable).

a series of letters added to the start of the word to make a new word with a new meaning. some examples of prefixes are:
un-/in- = not
over- = too much
under- = too less.
Like a suffix, when a prefix is added to a word, the word becomes a base word.

A word category that has no grammatical use or context outside of being appended to the beginning of a word to give it extra meaning. In some cases they are referred to as their own words, as when compounded together with specific words, they create no dictionary word, for example interuniversal, to mean "between universes".
Words that are prefixes are usually followed by a "-" when spoken about in definitions, or mentioned as the word itself and not by its definition, to denote that it is a prefix.
