It is frequently used in English words to indicate a state or condition that is more extreme or intense than normal.
Here are some examples of words with the prefix "hyper":
* Hyperactive: Excessively active or energetic.
* Hyperbole: Exaggerated statements not meant to be taken literally.
* Hypertension: High blood pressure.
* Hypersensitive: Extremely sensitive to stimuli.
* Hyperthermia: Abnormally high body temperature.
So, "hyper" itself is not Latin or Greek, but a Greek prefix that is commonly used in English to create words with specific meanings.
