When do you put the word in front of a word?

It seems like you're asking about prefixes. Prefixes are word parts added to the beginning of a word to change its meaning.

Here are some examples of prefixes and how they are used:

* Un-: means "not" or "opposite of"

* Happy -> Unhappy

* Tied -> Untied

* Re-: means "again" or "do again"

* Read -> Re-read

* Start -> Restart

* Pre-: means "before"

* Game -> Pre-game

* Paid -> Pre-paid

How to know when to use a prefix:

* Understanding the prefix's meaning: The prefix must logically fit the word it is attached to.

* Word formation: Prefixes are often used to create new words with opposite meanings, intensified meanings, or to denote something that happens before or after the action of the base word.
