What prefix can you add to obedient?

Here are some prefixes you can add to "obedient" to change its meaning:

* Disobedient: Means not obeying.

* Preobedient: This isn't a real word, but it could theoretically mean "obeying before being told," or "being excessively obedient."

* Unobedient: Means the same as "disobedient."

* Inobedient: This isn't a real word, but it could potentially mean "lacking the capacity to obey."

You could also use prefixes that modify the meaning in a more abstract way, such as:

* Hyperobedient: Excessively obedient.

* Subobedient: Slightly obedient, or obeying in a limited way.

* Pseudo-obedient: Seemingly obedient, but actually disobeying in some way.

The best prefix depends on the specific meaning you want to convey.
