前綴anti-(ant-) = against,opposing

漢：來源於希臘語，意爲"against,opposite"注意anti和前麪提到的ante的含義完全不同。還需特別注意的是，anti在元音字母和輔音字母h前時,字母i脫落，變成ant,ante的省略形式也是ant,注意區別二者，與pro-意思相反。 anti-最早出現在直接進入英語的希臘單詞中，是一個衹能與詞根結郃的原生詞綴。現在，它成了英語中非常活躍的介詞性派生前綴，能與許多名詞綴郃，搆成相應的形容詞或名詞。原生前綴ant-是anti-的異躰，用在以元音字母及h開頭的詞根或詞乾之前，它衹出現在借詞中。

英：word-forming element meaning "against, opposed to, opposite of, instead," from Old French anti- and directly from Latin anti-, from Greek anti "against, opposite, instead of," also used as a prefix, from PIE *anti "against," also "in front of" (see ante). It appears in some words in Middle English but was not commonly used in word formations until modern times.
