前缀 apo-

词缀前缀

汉：来源于希腊语，意为"away from,inensive"。有趣的是，前缀apo既用于最现代的用语中，也用于最古老的用语中。此外，在元音字母和辅音字母h前，元音字母o脱落，变成ap。
英：before vowels ap-, word-forming element meaning "from, away from, separate, free from," from Greek apo "from, away from; after; in descent from," in compounds, "from, asunder, away, off; finishing, completing; ceasing from; back again," from PIE root *apo- "off, away" (cf.
