How do you add a prefix in the word definitely?

You can't really add a prefix to the word "definitely" to create a new word. Here's why:

* "Definitely" is already a complete word. It means "without any doubt" or "for sure." Adding a prefix would change the meaning and create an entirely different word.

* The root word "definite" already has a prefix. The prefix "de-" means "away from" or "opposite of." Adding another prefix would make the word unnecessarily complex.

If you're looking to modify the meaning of "definitely," you could use synonyms like:

* Absolutely

* Certainly

* Positively

* Unquestionably

* For sure

Or you could use phrases to express degrees of certainty:

* Almost definitely

* Highly likely

* Very probably

* It's likely that...
