What is the Greek prefix in English and Latin?

The Greek prefix in English and Latin is "pan-". It means "all," "every," "whole," or "entire."

Here are some examples of words with the prefix "pan-":

* Panorama: A view of an entire area.

* Pandemic: A disease that affects a whole population.

* Pantheon: A temple dedicated to all the gods.

* Panoply: A complete set of something, often armor.

* Pantomime: A performance using only gestures and facial expressions.

It's important to note that the prefix "pan-" can be used in both English and Latin, but it is more common in English. In Latin, the prefix "omni-" is often used to convey the same meaning as "pan-".

For example, "omnipotent" (all-powerful) is a Latin word that is equivalent to "panpowerful" in English.
