You can use the search engine on this page for more than one purpose:

  1. Reverse dictionary. Enter meanings to find corresponding prefixes (e.g., searching with the word yellow will locate the prefixes chloro-, flavo-, ictero-, luteo-, and xantho-).

  2. Find prefix meanings. Enter a prefix in the box and click the Search button. The finder will then search through the list of prefixes on this site and return any matches (this search requires correct spelling; prefixes can also be looked up alphabetically).
When you click on the Search button, links to suffix definitions in the suffix dictionary will be displayed. Click on the links to access the information you seek.

Tip: If you don't get a result, try using a query that's a synonym (e.g., instead of carry, try searching with the word bear).

Note: This finder is provided by Google, so ads may appear beside your search results.
